How it works
Music therapy is a form of therapy that uses music as a main tool to promote health and well-being. It involves the use
structured form of music, including elements such as rhythm, melody and harmony, to help people improve their physical, emotional, mental and social health.
The importance of music therapy lies in the fact that music has a profound influence on our lives. It can evoke emotions, awaken memories and stimulate creativity. Through music therapy, I use music in a targeted and personalized way to meet needs.
individual needs of each person.
Music therapy has been effective in treating a variety of conditions, such as anxiety disorders, depression, stress, autism spectrum disorders, sleep disorders, chronic pain and neurodegenerative diseases, among others. It can help reduce anxiety, improve mood, promote emotional expression, increase motivation and improve quality of life.
Initial Assessment
In our first meeting, I conduct a careful assessment to understand each
patient's needs, interests, and goals. This helps us customize the therapy
according to their needs.
Musical Interventions
During the sessions, I use music as a therapeutic tool. This may involve
musical improvisation, composition, active listening, or creating customized
playlists to address the emotional and cognitive needs of the patient.
Therapeutic Planning
Based on the initial assessment, we develop an individualized therapeutic
plan. This includes selecting musical instruments and specific improvisation
techniques that will be used during the sessions.
Communication and Expression
Through music, we assist patients in expressing themselves non-verbally,
which can be especially effective for those who have difficulties
communicating verbally. Music becomes a language for sharing emotions
and thoughts.
Skill Development
In addition to addressing emotional issues, music therapy can be used to
develop cognitive, motor, and social skills. For example, we can work on
improving concentration, motor coordination, or social interactions.
Overall Well-Being Promotion
Music therapy isn't just about solving problems; it also promotes overall
well-being. It provides a creative outlet for emotional expression, helps
enhance self-awareness, and boosts self-esteem.
