Music therapy sessions at Demelza will open up wonderful possibilities for engagement and interaction for you, your child and your family.
The child and their family members are at the heart of every session and you will have the opportunity to lead the session if you wish. The sessions can be loud and lively or relaxing and soothing and maybe even a mixture of all of these.
Some children may choose to make up a song about how they are feeling; others will simply wish to be still and quiet in the therapeutic space, spending time away from the medical interventions they have to face on a daily basis.
In addition to instruments, music therapists may use other items, such as sensory props and music technology, to add another experience to sessions.
