What might our sessions like?

  • Our therapists provide individualized music therapy services for people of all ages, while also supporting the family members, loved ones, and caregivers who are part of their care experience.

    Sessions are designed to meet each client where they are, whether that is at home, school, a care facility, or another residence-based setting.

    Through a compassionate and personalized approach, music therapy can support emotional expression, communication, connection, comfort, coping skills, memory, and overall quality of life.

  • Group music therapy offers meaningful opportunities for connection, socialization, and community building in both small groups of six or fewer and larger group settings.

    These sessions can be especially beneficial for day programs serving adults with disabilities, memory care and senior care facilities, mental health groups, and other supportive care environments.

    Each group is designed around shared goals, such as reducing isolation, encouraging participation, strengthening social connection, and creating a welcoming space where individuals can engage through music together.

  • We partner with organizations to create meaningful music therapy experiences that align with their vision, mission, and the needs of the people they serve.

    These partnerships may include presentations, staff trainings, educational opportunities, goal-based playlists, unique group offerings, or other creative ways to incorporate music therapy into care and community programming.

    Each partnership is designed with intention, helping organizations bring the benefits of music therapy into both traditional and non-traditional settings.

Telehealth Music Therapy

Accessible Music Therapy Support, Wherever You Are

Did you know, outside of traveling around our Minneapolis-St. Paul area, we also offer Telehealth?

Telehealth music therapy is available for individuals, families, and communities who live outside Keynote Music Therapy’s in-person service area or in more rural areas of Minnesota, while still wanting access to the benefits of working with a board-certified music therapist.

Sessions are held through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform and are led by an MT-BC who provides personalized support in a virtual setting. This option allows clients to engage in meaningful music therapy services from the comfort of their own home while still receiving professional, compassionate care tailored to their needs.
