Music Therapy is useful with autistic children owing in part to the non-verbal, non-threatening nature of the medium.
"About the Centre
Fran Herman, the first chair of the CMTTF, dreamed of a place where music therapy services could be offered in Toronto and the profession of music therapy could be visible to the public. In 2001, due to generous gifts from Michael Cohl and other members of the music industry, the Music Therapy Centre opened its doors.
The Music Therapy Centre is a street-front clinic in the heart of Toronto that promotes health and wellness in the community through a variety of programs.
The Music Therapy Centre provides:
- An intimate clinical setting for one-on-one music therapy sessions
- A bright, spacious clinic for group work
- Outreach programs for the community
- Research projects to further develop the use of music as a therapeutic tool
The Centre is funded and operated by the Canadian Music Therapy Trust Fund. The Fund relies on the generous financial support of its donors and sponsors to run the Centre and its other programs. To support us, click here.
