Music for Memory, Comfort, and Connection
Cornish Music Therapy, LLC provides professional certified music therapy services for seniors across the greater Seattle area using evidence-based music therapy techniques to support memory, connection, and quality of life for older adults.
Music Therapy In Action:
“There was a resident I worked with who had several strokes and spoke only short words and phrases on rare occasions. I began singing 'Let Me Call You Sweetheart' and paused at the end of the first line to see if he would sing the last word. He hesitated — then sang it. Then he sang the entire song with me. Afterward, he was able to answer a couple of yes or no questions, and flashed a big smile.”
