We offer three services, all delivered in your home:

  • Expressive Music Therapy —expressive therapy, focused on individualized goals

Each service is tailored to your unique needs.

Our services may be covered through the Step Up Scholarship program. There are two scholarship options:

Expressive Music Therapy is listed as a Specialized Service under FES-UA. Music Sessions and Art and Handcrafting Sessions may qualify as Elective or Enrichment Activities under either scholarship.

We also accept Simply Health Care insurance. Private pay is also available. Contact us to check your eligibility.

FES-UA: Your child must be a Florida resident, at least 3 years old, and have a qualifying disability or high-risk designation documented by a qualified professional.

PEP: Your child must be a Florida resident and at least 3 years old. No disability documentation is required.
