Real Stories of Transformation and Recovery

April 2025

Caleb’s sessions are more than just music; they are a therapeutic experience that connects with the heart and soul of every person in the room.

Caleb’s approach is inclusive, accommodating & he meets you where you’re at. Every week I look forward to his session. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Caleb’s approach of marrying breath work, mindfulness with music therapy!

Caleb has been providing music therapy sessions for my non-verbal, autistic son for a while and it’s been amazing to see the responsiveness and engagement with both the music and with Caleb grow. Caleb is flexible, patient and calming and a pleasure to work with.

Music therapy sessions with EarthTones Music Therapy greatly benefited our residents in long-term care. They looked forward to spending time together and listening/playing music each week! Beautiful approaches to socialization and community creation!

Music has a way of reaching people like no other modality. I have seen music therapy ignite memories, spark meaningful conversations, and brighten a room with laughter. Having this therapeutic intervention at Fountain View has had an immediate and lasting impact on the participants, bringing more connection and happiness into our community.

Matthew - Fountain View Community

November 2024

Caleb has been a great support for our clients at Delta since June 2023. He has led meaningful one on ones and group sessions for our clients where he's helped brighten their lives through music. Caleb's impact on the Delta was far beyond just music, it helped foster relationships with clients who I had a hard time engaging.

Palliative Care, Hospice & End of Life

Music therapy offers comfort, connection, and peace during the end-of-life stage by evoking meaningful memories and a sense of calm. At Earthtones, we provide culturally sensitive support to individuals and families, using music to ease the journey with care and compassion.

"Music therapy is a discipline in which credentialed professionals use music purposefully within therapeutic relationships to support development, health, and well-being. Music therapists use music safely and ethically to address human needs within cognitive, communicative, emotional, musical, physical, social, and spiritual domains."

- Canadian Association of Music Therapists (CAMT)

Client-Centered Interventions:

Allowing clients to dictate their own needs and goals.

Team-Based Approach:

Providing Music Therapists and other professionals who know how to speak with other licensed professionals (nurses, doctors, social workers etc.) and properly document interventions and results.

Culturally Sensitive Interventions:

Living in Toronto, it is essential to be open-minded and knowledgeable of other cultures traditions, holidays and their music. We believe in a Global-Village mentality and strive to bring Music Therapy to all those in need.

About Us

When experiencing stress, anxiety or change, Music Therapy is a useful tool to empower one to face issues from the past, present or future & to develop coping strategies & skills to maintain balance in ones life.

Because MUSIC creates a deep imprint on our minds & souls, we can use it to stimulate our emotions, our cognition & our physicality. We use MUSIC to find moments of solitude & to express ourselves and to strengthen social ties with others from a very young age. A Music Therapist utilizes all this information while engaging their client in stimulating activities to help heal traumas, promote self-expression & sometimes just to have fun!

This is why MUSIC works as THERAPY

Sample Online Session:

Mindfulness-Based Music Therapy 

This sample session video features a 6-minute meditation designed to relieve stress and anxiety by helping you tune into your body’s natural rhythm. It uses visualization techniques to release blockages and shift focus toward positive emotions, reducing the impact of negative or intrusive thoughts. Great for people of all ages and abilities but especially those who are limited to their homes and unable to participate in in-person programming.
