<p>Music therapy addresses non-musical goals. It can be esp. effective for children with autism. Therapy addresses specific areas of the child. Many children who are non-verbal can sing entire songs. Musical instruments are used for motor planning exercises. There are often no delays in musical perception in children with autism. Musical therapy provides a venue where children with autism can often feel a great deal of success. Music therapy works with the child to further develop that feeling of success.</p><p>For an example of a musical therapy program see: <a href="http://www.creativeexchangemusic.com/">http://www.creativeexchangemusic.com</a>.</p><p>In Atlanta or Florida, look at: <a href="http://www.workingthepuzzle.com/">http://www.workingthepuzzle.com/</a></p><p><font face="Arial Narrow">They currently offer Music Therapy (MTx) in individual and group settings, designed to utilize the effectiveness of intervention through Music. </font></p><p> </p><p><font face="Arial Narrow"><a href="http://faqautism.com/about-us/">http://faqautism.com/about-us/</a> is an informative Web site from a special education music therapy teacher in the Stephenville, Texas area. </font></p>
