Music Therapy Week 2020 – Keeping Community in Mind: Musicking Together

October 19, 2020 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Musicking together is an inclusive community music circle and is open to anyone. It is a safe space to play musical instruments, sing, dance or simply listen to others playing. As long as we are in the space, we are “musicking.”

There will be instruments provided for you to join in shared music making. There will be time allocated afterwards to answer any questions you may have about Music Therapy, what it is, who it helps and how you might become a Music Therapist.

For further information please contact – Sophie (NZ Registered Music Therapist) at sophie.sabri@gmail.com

Music Therapy has not only brought our daughter great improvements in motor planning, finger strength, communication and attention span, it has brought her great joy as well. There is no place she would rather be than in a room making music.

“Yesterday was one of the most rewarding when we had a visit from a Music Therapist. What a great experience. To see a whole group of residents joining in by either singing, requesting, conversing, or ‘playing’ an instrument was a very emotional experience. The communication between residents was great and it was obvious how well they responded…it was brilliant.”

"My family have been thrilled with Liz’s Music Therapy and her regular reporting. Mum has dementia however I have noticed improvements in her cognitive functioning since she started her sessions with Liz. I know Mum enjoys her music sessions. I have no hesitation in recommending Liz – she has been a huge support in the care of my mother."

"Thanks Megan. This is all a slice of perfect in a very crazy crazy world. So very glad we have kept this going for A."
“Pip has vast knowledge on how to engage and get results from children in her Music Therapy sessions. Her lessons are motivating and targeted for each individual child. Pip finds the just-right blend between the much needed structure that anchors and regulates our students, while always leaving room for improvisation, exploration, and musical adventures co-created with the students. Her communication with the family and team that supports the child is second to none, taking an interest in using strategies that work within the school/home setting as well as sharing strategies that go well in each session”
