Typically showing fleeting relatedness in early sessions, here, in our 12th meeting, this 5-year old autistic child is more at ease and willing to sit next to his therapist as he plays piano, vocalizes, and moves in time to the blues-inflected music that he loves. (with Yuriko Takada, co-therapist)

In this special segment, you can view the ways in which  a group of young children become more engaged and social through music therapy group experiences.  (With music therapists Michele Ritholz & Sunyoung Park.)
