Session Services
Session Attendance:
Frequency and length of sessions will be recommended by the music therapist and approved by the client and caregiver during the initial assessment period. Please inform the music therapist if you need to postpone, reschedule, or cancel a session as far in advance as possible. The particular time scheduled with the music therapist is reserved for the individual receiving services and consistent, regular attendance is expected. If the client misses 3 or more consecutive sessions without notice of absence or if more than 2 monthly/4 bi-weekly payments have been missed, it will be assumed that the client no longer requires services and will be terminated.
Cancellation Policy:
Riverview Music Therapy LLC staff require at minimum 24 hour notice of cancellation or rescheduling of sessions. Day of cancellations will result in a charge for 50% of the service that was to be provided.
​
Please note that a session cancellation is only for one session, not the remaining/recurring sessions or full termination of services. If you need or would like to terminate services, please see the Refund & Withdrawal Policy below.

Referral Consultation & Initial Assessment
Intake & referral forms will be provided by the music therapist upon request for services. The music therapist will then reach out after you have submitted the forms to set up a meeting to gather further information and to schedule an initial assessment.
​
The initial assessment includes a non-musical observation and musical assessment with the intended client to determine if music therapy services are appropriate. Assessment findings will be discussed with the individual who requested services, the client, and parents/guardians approximately 1-2 weeks following the assessment.
