Group Music Therapy

Your Community in the Journey of Healing

Develop tools to recognize and manage your anger through music-based interventions along with people undergoing similar life situations led by an experienced board-certified music therapist. Join the session to recognize, accept and learn how to express your anger in healthy ways through sound, lyrics, and other musical strategies that do not require any musical training.

What is Music Therapy?

By releasing endorphins, music helps with stress relief and leaves participants with a feeling of calmness. A licensed music therapist enables you to tap into the part of your brain which is responsible for memory, emotions, and sensory projection neurons that help with decision making and feeling rewarded to help you understand your inner self and emotions. It enables muscle relaxation and lowers heart rate and blood pressure.

Music therapy is widely used to assist individuals in reducing anxiety, treating sleep disorder, OCD, trauma, negative mood, aggression, overthinking and reducing substance abuse and depression. It can immensely help people diagnosed with developmental disabilities like autism, ADHD, and others with self-esteem issues.

What Happens in a Manoshala’s Music Therapy Group Sessions?

The therapist will be using cognitive behavioral music therapy (CBMT) and analytical music therapy to allow you to understand your triggers for anger closely. The session will consist of music making, listening and guided imagery to empower you with tools and techniques that can be used independently to cope with anger constructively.
