There is no need for a person to have any musical experience, and it is not just for people who have an existing interest and enjoyment of music. Anyone, regardless of ability can engage in a music therapy session since even the simple rhythm of the breath can form the basis for a musical piece. I also use a range of other creative modalities - art, sand-play, puppetry and story-telling - so I can engage wherever the motivation lies.
