Important Announcements/Commonly Asked Questions!
Q: What’s happening with Tiny Tunes?
A: We loved offering our Tiny Tunes music class this summer! Since Ms. Hannah is currently our only music therapist, she’s taking a break from Tiny Tunes to focus on her music therapy caseload. Be sure to follow us on social media for announcements about future “pop-up” classes!
Q: Why did Remedies in Rhythm start a Foundation?
A: The answer is simple - In Michigan, it can be challenging for insurance to cover music therapy services. Through our Foundation, we strive to make music therapy more accessible to our community by building partnerships, applying for grants, and welcoming private donations. With your support, we can expand our offerings—providing more group classes (such as Tiny Tunes) at little to no cost and offering scholarships for individual services.

Q: Does Remedies in Rhythm offer traditional music lessons?
A: Short answer: No.
When we first opened our clinic, we offered music lessons. However, we found that it can be difficult to determine which individuals would benefit most from standard lessons versus a music therapy approach.
In music therapy, we often include elements of adaptive music instruction within sessions — but the goal isn’t necessarily to “play the right notes.” Instead, we focus on broader goals such as building self-esteem, improving focus, promoting emotional regulation, and developing confidence through music. This approach stems from our clinical and therapeutic training, rather than a performance-based model.
As the demand for music therapy services has grown — and because that’s truly the heart of what we do — we’ve chosen to focus entirely on our therapeutic services rather than traditional music lessons.
