What Is Music Therapy?

Music therapy is a well-established, research-driven profession in which a credentialed music therapist utilizes music strategies and exercises within a therapeutic relationship to address physical, emotional, cognitive and social needs of individuals of all ages.

Music therapy is an allied health service much like physical, occupational, or speech therapy, using music as the medium to attain the goals. Call us today for more information 619.299.1411 or contact us here.

“The Music Therapy Center of California is unique in their desire and ability to personalize their work with each client. They have found a perfect harmony of professionalism and personalization with our son, Reid. They are respectful and give dignity to every client, always encouraging them to their own personal best.
