Creating lasting change in the lives of people of all abilities through music.

Note-Able Music Therapy Services addresses physical, social, and mental health needs in our community by offering a range of adaptive music, music therapy, and neurologic music therapy services.

  • Music therapy is the clinical & evidence-based use of music interventions to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship by a credentialed professional who has completed an approved music therapy program.*

  • Music therapists work with people of all ages with intellectual disabilities, sensory impairments, autism, traumatic brain injuries, dementia, mental health and addiction issues, neurological disorders, and physical disabilities. Music therapists also work with hospice patients, veterans, at-risk youth, medically fragile individuals, and more.

  • Music therapists facilitate musical experiences for groups and individuals. These can include songwriting, instrument play, improvisation, singing, and dancing. While these activities may seem purely musical and recreational in nature, music therapists focus on goals such as social connection, self-confidence, communication, sensorimotor rehabilitation, speech, and relaxation. These skills can then translate into daily life.

News & Notes
April 2025 Newsletter Highlights

Hello -

April 10th-15th is World Music Therapy Week, a great time for us to highlight the power of music therapy. Sponsored by the World Federation of Music Therapy, this week raises awareness about the importance of music therapy worldwide, especially in developing countries where access to mental health resources can be limited.

Music therapy uses music to help people with various physical, emotional, and social needs. It offers a unique way for individuals to express themselves and connect with others. At NMTS, our board-certified music therapists provide inclusive programs for all ages and abilities, creating a safe space for healing and growth.

Join us in celebrating World Music Therapy Week by sharing your stories and engaging with our social media. Together, we can spread the message of hope and inclusion that music therapy brings to our community.

Thank you for your support of NMTS and our mission to create lasting change through music!
