Project Description
In Music Therapy, the developmental, emotional, psychological and social needs of children and adults are addressed through active music-making in a relationship with a music therapist. The Conservatory offers the services of master’s degree level, certified music therapists with New York State creative arts licenses. These professionals are trained multi-instrumentalists with specialties that include psychology, special education and other related fields.
An initial intake session is scheduled to assess the strengths and needs of each client and to determine placement. Sessions are scheduled on an individual basis to best meet the needs of clients and families. Limited financial assistance is available.
COVID-19 Update
BKCM’s Onsite Music Therapy Program will continue to operate virtually, through telehealth sessions for the spring semester. The music therapy program will make our reopening decisions based on best safety and clinical practices for our students and families, which may mean a more conservative approach to going back to in person sessions. We have built a rich and sustainable virtual music therapy package here for short and long term decision making. Please stay tuned for updates as we proceed through the school year. BKCM’s Covid-19 task force has been working diligently to develop building reopening plans.
