Every February, Charro Days in reminds us that music is more than performance, it is identity, history, and connection 🇲🇽

In music therapy, we see this same power every day. Culturally meaningful music can strengthen belonging, support emotional expression, and build community resilience 🎶

Festivals like Charro Days remind us what happens when people come together through song and dance 🩵

Music isn’t just something we hear, it’s something our nervous system feels 🎶

The right rhythm can slow your breathing.
The right melody can help you process emotion.
The right song can help you feel grounded.

Emotional regulation isn’t just about “calming down”, but helping the body feel safe enough to settle.

In music therapy, we use rhythm, tempo, and preference intentionally to support that shift🧠🩵

Our Story

In the Rio Grande Valley, access to music therapy has been extremely limited...until now. Over the last few months, music therapy has become available across multiple settings including home health, behavioral health, hospice, and support for veterans with PTSD. This is a huge step forward for healthcare in the Rio Grande Valley.

Access to music therapy treatment is important for several reasons. Music therapy is an allied health profession that is research and evidence-based which means that everything music therapists do is intended to target very specific objectives. For children who are nonverbal, music can be the bridge for communication with others. In hospice care, patients can compose or record favorite songs as a legacy for their loved ones. Music can teach academic skills, reinforce positive behaviors, provide relaxation, improve motor functioning, and facilitate positive coping for traumatic events.

The difference that music therapy can make is immeasurable. Music itself has been referred to as a universal language because of its constant presence throughout the course of humanity. I have seen Alzheimer's patients sing every word of a "Golden Oldie" after being unable to recognize themselves or their loved ones. I have watched families come together at the bedside of their beloved elder to join in one last hymn.

Music is always with us. As music therapists, we are trained to take these connections and use them to enhance the lives of our patients in a clinical setting. Music therapists have a minimum of a bachelor's degree in music therapy and a current, professional credential (MT-BC) to practice music therapy.
