Developmental Delays
One of the most common developmental delays is speech and language. Children with delayed speech development are at greater risk of acquiring other cognitive and social-emotional deficits. Music Therapy facilitates speech development in children by increasing their ability to form and maintain relationships and prosodic abilities.
