Music Therapy/MT
Therapeutic music lessons are the core component of the Music Therapy/MT intervention. Other components include guided music listening to help participants use music as a tool for regulating mood, energy, and attention, as well as music-centered discussions to help participants discover songs with personal meaning that they will enjoy learning to play.
Therapist-Attention Music Education/TAME Control
Participants will receive 12, weekly 60-minute TAME sessions (+/- 1 week) with homework in-between sessions to reinforce in-session concepts and serve as transitions to subsequent sessions. The TAME control group will involve board-certified music therapists guiding participants through music listening exercises.
