Music therapy
Music therapy can form a part of any educational
pr treatment program. The music therapist responds to any
sounds or vocalizations initiated by the child, using percussion,
instruments or the voice. This improvisation draws the person
into a relationship with the therapist and can stimulate
expression and develop meaningful communication.
