Integration

Music is a powerful tool and can be incorporated in everyday lives as a means of growth and development.  We use music to help clients develop non-musical goals related to activities of daily living, communication, cognition, academic achievement and more.

Educational and Therapeutic Philosophies

At Integrative Music Services, LLC, we believe music connects us all to each other and to the world around us. We take an eclectic approach dedicated to nurturing the clients’ strengths while addressing areas of need. The lesson studio or therapeutic setting is designed to set the student or client up for success both in and out of the studio.  Music therapy sessions and lessons are tailored to the needs of each individual student. We hold an open space for each student to create, play, and learn. By using a combination of learning and therapeutic styles, including visual, aural, and kinesthetic exercises, and traditional and alternative notation and practices, we seek to help each student reach musical independence and develop an appreciation for art. 

Above all, the musical setting is a space to create art through emotional expression and learn to understand ourselves and others. Ultimately, music teaches us what it is to be human.
