What are Music Therapy Programs?
We offer music therapy in a variety of settings—senior living homes, disability services, mental health organizations, shelters, community-based programs, schools, and more. We understand that each group has its own set of goals— and thus, our programs are designed to be immersive experiences that foster emotional expression, cognitive engagement, and physical movement through music.
At the heart of what we do is the belief that music can be a powerful tool for growth, development, and healing. Maybe it’s helping someone reduce anxiety, regain physical coordination, or to simply find moments of joy in their day. Music can reach us in ways that words sometimes can’t. Our approach is about meeting people where they are and using music in a way that feels personal and meaningful to them. With Shine Music Therapy, no two programs are the same, because no two people are the same—and that’s what makes the work so powerful.
Our Music Therapy Programs Can Involve:
Making music
Listening to music
Playing instruments
Songwriting
Exploring meaningful songs and lyrics
Educational Learning
Having meaningful discussions
And more!

about uS
Welcome To Shine Music And Therapy Services!
Through compassionate conversation, creative expression, and meaningful connection, we help you explore your experiences, build resilience, and move toward lasting growth.
At Shine Music and Therapy Services, we believe healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. Sometimes meaningful change happens through conversation, insight, and the use of evidence-based psychotherapeutic technique. Other times, music and the creative arts provide a path forward when words feel difficult to find. Both are powerful therapeutic approaches, and together they offer unique opportunities for growth, healing, and self-discovery.
Whether you’re navigating personal challenges, managing complex emotions, strengthening relationships, or living with mental health diagnoses, you don’t have to face it alone. Our team of compassionate therapists create a safe, supportive space where your experiences are valued, your voice is heard, and your goals guide the therapeutic process.
