We are excited to introduce Douglas Aguiar, music therapist Registered(AMTA) and Neurologic Music Therapy®️ (NMT)™️ practitioner, now offering music therapy sessions for children at Lobato Therapy.
Douglas brings a rich background in music, education, and neurodiversity-informed care. His warm, engaging, and person-centred approach supports children, especially those with ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences, and other neurodivergent profiles, to thrive through the power of music.
Using music elements such as rhythm, melody, and movement, Douglas helps children build:
Emotional regulation
Focus and attention
Communication and social skills
Confidence and creativity
Sensory integration and self-awareness
Douglas works collaboratively with parents, carers, and other professionals to ensure therapy is supportive, effective, and aligned with each child’s developmental needs.
We are NDIS registered for Music Therapy services.
This means eligible participants can access Music Therapy through their NDIS plans with us. If you or someone you support could benefit from this evidence-based, neurologically informed approach, please reach out—we’d love to help.
Sessions available in Manly, exclusively through Lobato Therapy. To book or enquire, contact us info@lobatotherapy.com.au
