Right now, some of the most vulnerable children in our community are at risk of losing access to a lifeline: music therapy.

Due to a sudden pause in Medicaid coverage, families who rely on our services are facing heartbreaking uncertainty. These are children with trauma, disabilities, medical complexity, or emotional and behavioral dysregulation — and for them, music therapy is more than a creative outlet, it’s a safe space, a path to communication, function, and healing.

We need your help to bridge the gap until January 1, 2026, when our new Medicaid contract goes into effect.

Our small practice is built on compassion, clinical expertise, and the belief that every child deserves access to care that honors who they are. But we can’t do it alone. We’re asking our community to sponsor music therapy sessions so no child is left without support during this critical time.

Here’s how you can help:

Every dollar goes directly to providing therapy for children who would otherwise lose access. No administrative fees, no profit, no fluff — just real help, right now.

We’re committed to holding space for these young people to feel seen, supported, and safe — no matter what. With your support, we can continue our work.

Please consider donating or sharing this campaign. Together, we can keep the music playing, and the healing going.

With wholehearted gratitude,
