音乐 Therapy Services Center

According to the American 音乐 Therapy Association:

“音乐 Therapy is the clinical & evidence-based use of music interventions to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship by a credentialed professional who has completed an approved music therapy program.”

在音乐治疗中, a board-certified clinician uses evidence-based music interventions as a primary tool to help a client achieve nonmusical (physical, 沟通, 认知, 情感, and/or social) goals.

The 校本 音乐 Therapy Services Center welcomes clients of all ages across a wide variety of populations, including but not limited to:

• Acquired Brain Injury
• 自闭症
• 痴呆
• 唐氏综合症
• 心理健康
• Military Service Members and Veterans
• Parkinson’s Disease
• 中风

As part of their pre-internship clinical training, students who have completed the appropriate prerequisite courses are provided the opportunity to work with clients on-campus in the MTSC, under the supervision of board-certified 校本 音乐 Therapy faculty. 学生 work alone or in pairs to assess a client’s needs, prepare a treatment plan, implement that plan through weekly sessions, and document those sessions. All providers of service abide by the code of ethics of The American 音乐 Therapy Association (AMTA) and scope of practice of the Certification Board for 音乐 Therapists (CBMT). In order to meet ongoing student and program needs, a client receiving continued MTSC services may or may not be placed with the same student therapist across multiple semesters.

As we are a student training facility, we offer services when classes are in session based on the 校本 Academic Calendar:

Fall (September – November)

Spring (Mid-January – April)

Summer (June – July)

At this time, the MTSC provides student-led music therapy services on a pro bono basis. 学生 are unable to accept payment (or gifts) for services; however, donations toward general MTSC operations are always welcome.

The 音乐 Therapy Services Center is on the 2ND floor of the Luella Bennack 音乐 Center, located at the corner of Hildebrand and Broadway.
