Creating lasting change in the lives of people of all abilities through music.

Note-Able Music Therapy Services addresses physical, social, and mental health needs in our community by offering a range of adaptive music, music therapy, and neurologic music therapy services.

  • Music therapy is the clinical & evidence-based use of music interventions to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship by a credentialed professional who has completed an approved music therapy program.*

  • Music therapists work with people of all ages with intellectual disabilities, sensory impairments, autism, traumatic brain injuries, dementia, mental health and addiction issues, neurological disorders, and physical disabilities. Music therapists also work with hospice patients, veterans, at-risk youth, medically fragile individuals, and more.

  • Music therapists facilitate musical experiences for groups and individuals. These can include songwriting, instrument play, improvisation, singing, and dancing. While these activities may seem purely musical and recreational in nature, music therapists focus on goals such as social connection, self-confidence, communication, sensorimotor rehabilitation, speech, and relaxation. These skills can then translate into daily life.

News & Notes
May 2025 Newsletter Highlights

Hello -

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and this year’s theme, "In Every Story, There's Strength,” resonates deeply with us at NMTS.

Every person has a unique story filled with both challenges and victories. At NMTS, we believe that within each story lies incredible strength. Our music therapy programs offer a safe space for individuals to tell their stories, express their feelings, and share their experiences.

Music connects us and helps us communicate emotions that can be difficult to express. Through our programs, participants learn to embrace their strengths, build resilience, and connect with others.

This month, we encourage you to honor the strength in every story. Share your experiences and support one another. By sharing and listening to each other, we can all work toward creating a community that values understanding, tolerance, and compassion.
