JB音乐疗法已经为CBE学校提供音乐疗法服务长达24年。在此期间，JB音乐疗法曾在二十多所不同的学校和特殊场所开展过工作。

通过他们的项目，治疗师每周为学习困难较重至复杂的学生提供群组音乐疗法课程。对于这些学生来说，沟通技巧的发展是优先考虑的，而音乐疗法的互动特性为诱发和教授基本反应提供了自然机会。其中一些关键技能包括目光接触、持久注意力以及其他非语言的沟通方式。

通过与每位学生的老师的合作和咨询，为每个治疗课程制定个性化目标。治疗师利用音乐疗法来改善学生的灵活性、记忆力以及沟通技巧。其他效果还包括增加自我调节能力，减少抑郁的迹象和情绪感受，减少压力和焦虑，降低疼痛感知，以及提高整体健康水平。所有这些效果都有助于学术成功和个人发展。

此外，JB音乐疗法与CBE教师合作并提供内部培训。这有助于实现两个关键目标：帮助教师和支持人员更好地了解学生，并为这些学生提供成功的工具和策略的条件。

JB音乐疗法与他们接触的每个学生和学校建立并保持着独特而活跃的关系，远远超出了服务提供者的角色。JB音乐疗法致力于开发每个学生的个人才能、天赋和兴趣，以确保他们的学生在整个生活中获得最高品质的生活，不仅仅是在学校岁月中。

与JB音乐疗法合作，为我们的学生创造包容性实践和有助于成功的环境，是CBE的荣幸。他们与学生的工作与时间强化了CBE把学生放在首位并为他们提供在生活中茁壮成长的基础的价值观。

“我今天感受到的情感非常深刻。我还记得1992年在Emily Follensbee的第一个ECS小组——我将跟随许多学生直到高中。非常感谢您使我们感到特别。我们期待与CBE的持续合作关系。”

JB音乐疗法

JB Music Therapy has been providing music therapy in CBE schools for 24 years. Over this time, JB Music Therapy has been in over twenty different schools and special settings.

Through their program, therapists provide weekly cohort music therapy sessions to students with moderate to complex learning challenges. The development of communication skills is a priority for these students and the interactive nature of music therapy provides a natural opportunity to elicit and teach basic responses. Some of these critical skills include making eye contact, sustaining attention, and other non-verbal means of communication.

Through collaboration and consultation with each student’s teacher, personalized goals are developed for each therapy session. Therapists then use music therapy to improve mobility and memory, as well as communication skills. Other outcomes also include increased self-regulation, decreased signs and feelings of depression, decreased stress & anxiety, reduced perception of pain and improved overall health. All of these outcomes contribute to both the academic success and personal development of each student.

Additionally, JB Music Therapy collaborates with and offers in-service training to CBE teachers.  This helps to achieve two key goals: helping our teachers and support staff better know their learners, and providing them with tools and strategies that create conditions for success for these students.

JB Music Therapy builds and sustains a unique and dynamic relationship with each student and school with whom they interact, going well beyond that of just a service provider. JB Music Therapy is committed to the development of each student’s individual gifts, talents and interests to ensure the highest quality of life for their students not just for their school years, but for their entire life.

It is the CBE’s honour to partner with JB Music Therapy to create inclusive practices and enabling environments for the success of our students. Their work and time with students reinforces the CBE value of putting students first and providing them with a foundation to thrive in life.

“The amount of emotion I felt today ran very deep.  I remember my very first ECS group at Emily Follensbee in 1992 – many students I would follow through to high school.  Thank you so much for making us feel special. We look forward to our continued relationship with the CBE.”
