What is
Neurologic Music Therapy®?
"Neurologic Music Therapy (NMT)® is a research-guided clinical system that is driven by advances in neuroscience and the understanding of the perception, cognition, and production of music and how music can influence and change non-musical brain and behavior function" (NMT Academy, 2023).
As a certified Neurologic Music Therapist, Emma is trained to use this treatment system to address goals related to cognitive, affective, sensory, language, and motor functions and adapt the standardized Neurologic Music Therapy® techniques to fit the needs of every individual.
