Why consider music therapy for your loved one:

They enjoy rich, engaging music experiences, matched to their energy and interest level.
They experience non-musical benefits as well, including:
- A decrease in pain, anxiety, and confusion
- Connection with the people around them
- Access to old memories and the opportunity to tell favorite stories
- Increased focus and attention
Our board-certified music therapists know how to tailor music experiences to meet your loved one’s interests and needs
Because we all deserve music!

How it works:

1 You request a free phone consultation by clicking the button below. We'll follow with a link to schedule your chat where we’ll talk about your loved one’s interests and needs, and set up your initial sample session.
2 Prior to the sample session, you fill out an intake survey, to give us some health and musical background information to prepare for the session.
3 We will have our first music therapy session with your loved one in their home, complete with a variety of live music experiences. We'll also complete a music therapy assessment.
4 Depending how the sample session goes, and based on the assessment, we recommend a plan for frequency of music therapy visits and use this to set a schedule according to your wishes.
5 With your permission, we share video clips and/or written documentation with you so you don’t miss out on the fun and the joy of knowing how your loved one is enjoying music therapy.
6 We end music therapy when your loved one’s needs change, refunding any pre-paid sessions that have not been used.

The Soundscaping Source Difference:

→ We come to the client’s home for music therapy, whether that is in a family home or a care community. No more worrying about getting out to another medical or therapy appointment. (See our service area below.)

→ We can provide a wide range of musical experiences, depending on the client’s needs and interests, including:

• Singing old favorites

• Playing guitar, keyboard, and other instruments

• Playing simple percussion instruments

• Talking about songs

• Improvising on voice or other instruments

• Writing songs together

→ Our therapists specialize in work with older adults with a combined 15+ years serving seniors.

→ We work with your loved one’s other care providers to ensure continuity of care.

→ We make sure you don’t miss out on the fun – we send you video recordings of sessions (with your permission, of course.)
