Creative Arts Therapy in Passaic County, NJ
Elizabeth Hemmerlin, MA, MT-BC

Music therapy is a holistic approach to generating wellness. Interaction within the musical environment ignites changes in our physical, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual states of being. Utilizing creative expression and processing via music making, listening, and composition, these changes can be harnessed as a means for coping with life's challenges.

 

I am a board-certified music therapist with experience in the psychiatric setting, the pediatric medical setting, dementia-related illness, developmental delays, and chronic pain and illness. I specialize in evidence-based music therapy services to support mental and emotional health and wellness for children struggling with depression/anxiety/stress and/or chronic medical conditions, and for adults living with dementia-related illness, as well as a wide array of other challenges.

My approach is one that is nurturing and compassionate, strength-based, and responsive to the unique needs of the individual. No musical experience is necessary, only the desire to open oneself to the unique possibilities music therapy has to offer.
