We provide creative therapeutic experiences to foster resilience and growth through music therapy, art therapy and play therapy. Whether at our office or in the community, we create a space that is safe and welcoming for people at all intersections of identity and culture.
Music Therapy
Music therapy is the use of music interventions to reach non-musical goals. Similar to OT, SLP, and PT, after the completion of a formal assessment, a treatment plan with individualized goals is developed alongside the client or family. Through the use of music therapy techniques, we work on essential skills like socialization, emotional regulation, attention, communication and academics.

Play Therapy
Play therapy is a specialized approach that utilizes the natural language of children – play – to help them express themselves, process difficulties, and learn positive ways forward. Through various playful activities and interactions within a safe and supportive environment, children are encouraged to communicate their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This form of therapy allows them to explore, make sense of their world, and address emotional challenges in a way that feels natural and non-threatening.
Counseling
Counselors pull from a variety of talk therapy techniques while validating, empathizing and supporting the client with goals that may relate to mental health or life situations.
Our therapists utilize approaches and techniques to include behavioral therapies and solution-focused approaches. At times, our counselors will suggest expressive interventions like mindfulness and music, art-based reflections or guided imagery and music. However, the client is always in control of their treatment and can choose whether or not to utilize the arts.
DBT Skills
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skill building groups are for people who would like to cope more effectively with intense emotions, anxiety or depression, and/or relationship struggles. DBT skills are taught to reduce self-destructive behaviors and learn more adaptive ways to manage painful emotions. This group will integrate expressive therapies like music and art for a full mind-body experience. We have weekly classes for pre-teens, teens and adults.
Community Music Therapy
We provide music therapy services for many local hospitals, schools and long-term care facilities. We enjoy bringing therapy to the community to support goal areas such as improving mental and emotional health, creating social connections and improving quality of life. Contact us for information on how we can support your community.
Music Lessons
Our lessons differ from our competitors due to our ability to adapt lessons to fit the unique needs and music preferences of the student. We are able to individualize the lesson to fit the strengths and needs of the student to include using visual aids to reduce frustration, implementing schedules to keep our students on task, and incorporating music games, rhythm instruments, movement and singing, and musical breaks to maximize learning. We believe that everyone should have a successful experience with music lessons and our therapists are committed to helping you learn the best way you can.

Insurance Accepted: Art therapy, play therapy, and counseling services are billable to insurance under psychotherapy. At this time, music therapy cannot be billed to insurance in Virginia. However, we can bill Medicaid for mental health counseling when utilizing music therapy interventions. Through your patient portal, you can also access a superbill with the appropriate CPT and diagnostic codes in order to attempt partial reimbursement after paying your invoice with Healing Sounds. This has been successful when treatment goals are related to communication, physical needs, sensory processing and cognitive function.
