ET Music Therapy
ET Music Therapy is based on one simple principle: music is one of the most motivating and effective mediums for building strong connections for autistic individuals and those with diverse needs.
Music For Building Connections

“In only three sessions with ET Music Therapy, I see a big difference in my autistic four-year-old’s behaviours. There are so many positive changes. He’s more trusting and is excited to play a new instrument or musical game.”
The Power of Music: Sadie's journey at ET Music Therapy
Sadie's journey is a testament to the transformative power of music. Last summer, she stole the spotlight at her cousin's wedding, leaving the band in awe as they watched her dance the night away.
They insisted she belonged on stage, and little did they know, it was the beginning of something beautiful.
“Having witnessed the impact of ET Music Therapy firsthand during my time at the Pacific Autism Family Network (PAFN), I enrolled Sadie in weekly sessions at the Pacific Autism Centre. Now, she not only plays the keyboard but shares her love for music with family and friends,” Sadie's mother explains.
From battling severe OCD heightened during the COVID-19 pandemic, to finding her unwavering love for music, Sadie's story is one of resilience, passion and inspiration.
