Music Therapy

Music therapy is an evidence based allied health profession, recognised and funded by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). Music is used to actively improve their health, function, and well-being.

Music therapy is incredibly versatile and adaptive. At Intune, we focus on assisting children with developmental delays and disabilities to develop greater autonomy and independence. These individuals may have:

  • Autism

  • ADHD

  • Intellectual disabilities

  • Down Syndrome

  • Global Developmental Delays

Depending on the individual, sessions may involve singing, listening, instrument learning, song writing, and improvisation. Music is able to transcend all barriers, including physical, cognitive, and social. As such, music is able to assist with:

  • Communication

  • Social skills

  • Executive functioning

  • Emotional & Sensory Regulation

  • Fine & Gross Motor Development
