The Rebecca Center for Music Therapy

Music Psychotherapy

Music Psychotherapy is a process whereby musical experiences are used to facilitate the interpersonal process of the therapist and client. Psychological problems are treated through musical and verbal communication as well as through relationship factors between an individual and a therapist.

While most Music Psychotherapy is based on communication between the therapist and the individual, it is much more involved than just talking about your problems. It is a professional relationship between a therapist and a client that is based on therapeutic principles, structure and technique.

Rebecca Center therapists who specialize in Music Psychotherapy are trained to understand what you say through words, and through music; paying close attention to body language and voice tone.

Through extensive training and clinical experience, Music Psychotherapists are well versed in treating people with your condition; they can comprehend your particular problems, they are familiar with the symptoms of various psychiatric illnesses and the difficulties of daily living, and they know what questions to ask and might pose questions that you have never heard before.
