The session will offer newly created and adapted songs; research based interventions; and strategies and resources for each developmental level. Topics will include therapeutic music groups; children and families; individual music therapy; and therapeutic community based early childhood programs. Course members will have the chance to sing, play and move as they learn therapeutic music material that can be applied immediately to their own practice.
