Music is part of life - something we can all share as well as respond to in a uniquely personal way. These intimate connections with music remain despite disability, injury, illness or circumstances, and are not dependent on musical training or background. Music therapists work in early intervention, schools, programs for children and adults with disabilities, aged care, psychiatry, rehabilitation, grief counselling, palliative care, hospitals and other centres of medicine, correctional institutions, community programs and private practice. Music therapy is also sought by people who may not have specific difficulties but who would like to gain insight into themselves and their ways of relating to others.
