Westmount Music Therapy

Individual Music Therapy: Westmount Music Therapy offers individual music therapy at their private practice located in Westmount. The 50-minute sessions are tailored to each child or youth’s specific strengths and limitations to gain ground in goals associated with appropriate self-expression, social engagement, and relaxation, as well as increased self-esteem, language development, emotional regulation, and communication skills. Alison engages her clients with a variety of musical interventions including improvisation, songwriting, drumming, singing, instrumental playing, relaxation, dance, theatrical play and integrating music with other creative arts. Contact Alison Usher-Jones for further information and consultation for individual music therapy.
