Successful Approaches for Older Adults with Varying Abilities

$40.00$225.00

MusicWorx Toolbox: Successful Approaches for Older Adults with Varying Abilities, Third Edition is ideal for working in an older adult setting. But the ideas are adaptable to fit almost any population, helping clients achieve cognitive, sensorimotor, speech and language, social, and emotional goals. These intervention ideas are thorough enough that music therapists may replicate them exactly to create successful therapeutic sessions. But they also may incorporate any therapist’s unique artistic interpretation. The author describes how to adapt sessions to groups of clients with varying abilities, typical of older-adult communities.
