ABOUT US
​Sonata's Mission Statement:
Our overall objective is to satisfy the demands within the health field by providing goal oriented, progressive and humanistic services with integrity and care.
​
We believe that everyone deserves to be respected for who they are as an individual and to be looked upon with a positive and uplifting spirit; as there is no limit to the human potential. Music enables us to develop expressive freedom and communication, and building stronger, richer personalities; while active music making engages and promotes personal involvement, organization, and elicits growth and change.
ABOUT MUSIC THERAPY
Music therapy is the prescribed use of music to address the non-musical goals of each client. Specifically designed experiences within a musical context can motivate and influence a variety of life goals in such areas as communication, cognition, physical needs, emotional needs, and socialization skills.
Music provides a unique motivation to interact with one's environment. Its effect on an individual's mind, body & spirit allows us to utilize our clients' strength to address areas of need.
​
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Our philosophy for therapeutic intervention is supported by foundations in the Creative Music Therapy approach articulated by Paul Nordoff and Clive Robbins.

"Music allows us to develop expressive freedom and communication while building stronger, richer personalities. Active music making engages and promotes personal involvement, organization and elicits growth and change."
