Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy Video Portrait (Part 2)

The healing power of music. Just look at this video about the Nordoff-Robbins Center for Music Therapy, or ask some of the legends who support our work -- Sir Paul McCarthy, Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, Rolling Stones, The Who, U2, and Ozzy Osbourne, to name a few.
At the Center, children with autism and people with severe disabilities discover new ways to communicate -- through music.
The Nordoff-Robbins approach is labor-intensive. There is no substitute for the focused and sustained attention of experienced therapists when it comes to connecting with hard-to-reach individuals.
Most sessions are conducted with two therapists, a third person films the session, and the two therapists spend additional time reviewing the videotape of each session. Each session builds upon the last, and in time, previously unspoken emotions, hidden connections and new relationships are unveiled.
As you will see on these videos, music therapy provides joy and gives rise to new ways to communicate with satisfaction and meaning.

I got major goosebumps watching this video! I work with Alzheimer's and Autism and I want to become a Music Therapist more than I can put in to words. I've wanted to become a m.t. from the age of 16 or 17. Music has helped me through things and I want to give back to people what music has done for me

3:46 - 4:02 made me cry. This is so fantastic. I can´t wait to start studying music therapy at the university.

This is absolutely inspiring. I am doing a Music Therapy unit with my 5th graders today, to show how music can heal and came across your video. I will be showing it to them this afternoon, thank you.

This is so incredibly beautiful!!! Thank you, Clive and the Nordoff-Robbins institute, for providing such enriching and meaningful experiences through music! What a blessing music therapy is to these children and their families. Keep up this important work of relationship building through through music!

Just simply amazing. I agree, this is one of so many reasons why I am studying to become a music therapist at Montclair State university. Thank you Dr. A. @NordoffRobbins I would love for you to send me your litterateur -news letters

This is why I am studying to be a music therapist at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College! Are there any follow up videos of Joshua? It's easy to see he has music in his bones!

This is just amazing. I'm currently in SUNY Fredonia majoring in music therapy. This reminds me why I want to become a MT and why it's such a special program.
