Watch a music therapist work with different children with special needs.
This video shows the benefits of using music therapy to help children with special needs.
To see a person understand music so deeply they learned the way to break it down into teachable reachable life skills is truly beautiful
Thank you so much for your kind words.
I'm 13 and I have a little cousin who is autistic and absolutely loves when I sing! I'm in The Singing Angels and I never want to give up singing and I love working with children with special needs! I definitely want to look into this for college!
This is what I want to do. I have an extreme passion for music and people with disabilities, I play 6 instruments and I want to use my talent to help others to find the love for music that I have.
Same here. Music therapy seems like such a cool job.
Well nobody seems to understand me especially when nobody was talking to me cuz I don't live in the sound range they tell me turn down the music everybody is not where you are with yourself the mighty if you can assist someone please do so
It's nice when the school has a music class it is not nice when they take the activity of Music out of the school that's not nice music instruments are wonderful
This was so inspiring. I have a brother with special needs, and we come from a very musical family, and he loves music more than anything. I will be studying to become a music therapist at Berklee soon. 😊🎶
Very honorable job.
Dude! I've worked with kids like this, sometimes more severe, and only once a week did the company I worked for ever let the kids be exposed to music. And even then it was just a cd playing, not actual instruments. I love these videos, they bring a tear to my eye because I have such a heart for these kids. Keep up the good work man!
Just about to finish my undergraduate and go into music therapy and this is so inspirational
We took
@ 4:20 I can almost feel through watching through this computer screen the kids soul flower into happiness and acceptance.
Ohh, I like that description. Nice!!!
That is the sweetest connection.
This guy is the real life version of Steve from blues clues! Great work! Music is truely a universal language!
Ha! Thanks so much. I'll gladly take that comparison! 😀
You are inspiring. Teared up a bit while watching this. Your kindness and compassion for the kids show well in what you do.
Thank you for sharing that!
I'm Kailey and I'm sixteen, so naturally I'm thinking about college in a few years. I had to do a research paper on a possible occupation I would like to pursue and I came across an interview you did on the internet. I then found this video and am so thankful I did because now I know for certain I want to become a music therapist. Thanks for inspiring so many, including me, and helping me decide what I want to spend the rest of my life doing! God Bless!
I have autism and in Roseburg we don't have music therapy but when i watch you it calmes me down
i love to be music therapist just to help those children
Wish I could find a therapist like you for my daughter! Amazing work x
Thank you Ryan. I am looking into going back to school to become a music therapist. I really enjoyed this video
*****
Ryan,
This is truly a magical thing to watch. I never knew what music therapy was until I came across this video. The beauty in your profession is truly incredible. Thank you for sharing this.
such an amazing person.bravo!
I'm currently pursuing my BM in Music Therapy, and your videos are so inspirational! Thanks for sharing :)
With me being a person with autism and sometimes plays the guitar and also has an obsession with music this guys satisfying to watch tho im 15
I'm glad that you liked it!
That is sooooooo cool using music to reach out to people this shows music truly is the best remedy
Hey Ryan! You're probably getting sick of hearing from us music therapy students from USU. I loved how in your first clip you were able to integrate modern technology in your session. I was just wondering if you had a specific music app you used, either in this example or in other sessions. I think one of the most important things as music therapists is keeping up with the times. Being able to use modern technology in a session is a good way to connect with clients, especially with children with special needs, since they probably use different applications of technology at home. Do you know of any music therapy apps, or music apps in general, that can be helpful in music therapy sessions?
Thanks,
Kelsey
Beautiful video! As a speech pathologist who's worked with spcial needs kids and adults for many years I applaud loudly. You have a real gift and your music only enhances it.
Thanks for posting this video! Like Laura I am looking into training to be a music therapist. Yours was the first video I have watched. What you do for those children is nothing short of beautiful! x
I love this. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us.
Thank you for posting this wonderful video.
Thank you so much for putting this up here. I am now on the track to becoming a Music Therapist myself and was in some need of encouragement. Thank you. This was a joy to watch and it reminded me why I am here, in school. I pray that you continue to flourish in your career.
Hi Ryan, I'm a music therapy student at USU as well, and I have a quick question for you. I noticed that around 2:50 you waited a while for the client to respond before continuing. In my experience so far, I have found it difficult to know whether to keep waiting after I ask a question or to prompt for the answer. Do you have any thoughts on this? How long did it take you become comfortable with waiting?
Also, I have one more question. Do you think it is more effective to use well-known children's songs or to introduce less well-known or original songs? I am doing my practicum at a preschool right now, and I have wondered whether it is as effective to use new songs that the children are not familiar with.
Thank you,
Sarah
This is so beautiful that it brought me to tears. Its clear you have a love for what you do - keep that energy cause it inspires us all.
Mr. Judd, God bless you!
:) this put a smile on my face ♡ I am a music major but have thought about going into music therapy instead of music education. I love how you are with the children overall. This warmed my heart and is really confirming what I have been wanting to do for a while without really realizing it until now. Thank you for posting this (4 years ago :))
This made me emotional . God bless you😊
Many thanks, Yasmin! I appreciate your blessings. 🙏
Excellent video, Ryan! I loved watching everyone's reactions. Keep it up!! Heather
I absolutely love this!! I have been very interested in changing my major to Music Therapy. Thank you Ryan! My heart is full, just wow THE POWER OF MUSIC :)
what a nice job.. this is just so inspiring!..
You are such a blessing Ryan!
The smile in those precious children is PRICELESS!! ❤️😊😊😊
I love children, and specially love seeing those with disorders because they make me smile and brighten up my day! Music has been part of my life since the day I was born. And surprisingly, I have always shown how to make music to little kids I teach at my church and I love them making noises and seeing them be happy! This video made me smile!
Very inspirational! It's very rewarding and emotional to see you connecting with these kids on a personal level. Keep on being the amazing person that you are! :)
I am definitely sharing this on both my public speaking class and sociology of the family class. I want to help out people like these. They are all special in their own way.
You are so amazingly awesome! I can't wait to use your strategies in the Life Skills classroom. Thank you so much for sharing! The mothers statement at the end was priceless & brought tears to my eyes! God Bless!
Ahhh, thanks so much Alana!!! Yeah, that interview was super sweet and she said such powerful things. It was a very humbling experience. ❤️
This brought a happy tear to my face ☺️
What amazing things!Thank you.
You’re welcome!
Great job you do to help these flowers. Thank you indeed. Hope one day will be implemented here in Oman
This is beautiful!
this brought tears in my eyes.... but it made me feel like even wanting to work with children more....
I absolutely love this guy. I'm going into Music Therapy, myself, and this guy is just right on with everything.
You're doing such an amazing job. This is beautiful. I salute you. ♡
Mr. Judd this wonderful. I have been teaching elem. Music for 16 years and I have always had in the back of mind, music therapy. Where did you attend school and how many years till you were ready to hit the "field" . Thank you so much and God bless you.
Bravo amazing, keep the good work Ryan !
dude this is amazing, how long have you been working with kids like this? my goal in life is to work as a music therapist, I truly believe it can help all forms of people break the boundaries of communication issues which I feel is the main problem in connecting with people with disability. this video truly made me happy!
Hola Ryan, me encanta ver como trabajas, soy futura profesora de musica, y a veces nos encontramos en los salones con chicos con discapacidades multiples, y ver tu trabajo me emociona, me gustaria encontrar videos tuyos, trabajando con estos chicos pero con traduccion al español para que nos sea mas facil de entender, gracias por todo...
Thank you so much for these videos! I have been looking for videos like these, you're really good at what you do!
I would absolutely love to have a job like this. these videos just warm my heart so much. music has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember, and to be able to share it with someone who needs it would just make me so happy. I've never really had an experience with children who have special needs, but I think it would be great to be able to connect with them. I also think I would need to have some more skill with the instruments I play, like piano, guitar, and ukulele. but overall, I think this would be a wonderful job.
Great work!!
Thank you so much for making this! I had to write a paper on music therapy benefits for my English class and it really helped a lot.
thank you for this, ryan. i learned so much from this.
i work for children with special needs, ryan and this is an amazing clip. thank you for the work you do.

The man is doing a wonderful job!
Hello Ryan thankyou for sharing this, its very inspiring! I've been working with kids and families with special needs, and just taken up a music course, i think i may head into a similar path of music therapy, such rewarding beneficial and amazing work :) x
This so amazing .I hope to be able to help kids like this someday . hi5 to you Ryan . Taking music therapy now. Crosses fingers :)
Hi this is very nice video it's very useful to my son
junior in high school so it's time to start that wonderful search of colleges and careers. I've always wanted to be a music teacher or work with special need kids but with budget cuts its not s good field to go into and I think I just found my dream job
This video is so inspiring and provides a great overview for Music Therapy and children. I show it to my non-music major undergraduates who are mostly education majors. This video helps them see how Music Therapy can help them in their own classrooms. Thanks so much, Ryan!
this therapist is really good, you rule man...
So beautiful Ryan- I work with families of children with special needs and had a son with complex needs- he loved Elmo's song to calm him down. Sharing this video. keep up the great work!
I like your work with children. Hill Baars Holland (sometimes working in Z Afrika)
This is wonderful, keep doing this great work! I immediately smiled every time I saw a child light up on the video. I am writing a paper on music therapy for my Public Health class. I may even ask the instructor if I can show this video too. God Bless you.
Great! Thank you *****
I am in high school right now. I have a strong passion for music, mainly vocal. I know that I want to help special needs children, but I am debating on going for occupational therapy, teaching special needs or music therapy. Thank you of putting up this video, it will definitely influence ,y decision!
This is such an inspiration! I would love to discuss how you ended up pursuing music therapy and how you went about it.
God bless you sir
This is so inspirational
Thank you!

Right now i'm at my bachelor at the music therapy school of Denmark, and i've decided to do a year of working, with children with special needs, before i continue the master.
It's very interesting how good you are in communicating the bennefits of music therapy.
I'll be using these videos as inspiration in my work i'm sure.
Thanks Ryan!
And one more thing.
I need some inspiration of Group therapeutic setting with children with autism specter.
Do you know where to find some? It's for music games and so..
What an inspiring video to watch. Its just amazing how much music can helps these children and respond. I am seriously considering going into a career in music therapy. Going to apply for next years intake :)
Aww thank you so much
Hi, Ryan! I am endlessly greatful for this wonderful video. I have a lot of questions that I would really like to ask you about music therapy, if that would be alright. I'm a senior in high school and I am so inspired by music therapy.
Hi Ryan,
I'm musictherapist in France. Your work is very interesting and inspiring! what is the app for yes/no, please? Thanks
I'm not sure that one is available any more, but try this one! Yes/No from I Can Do Apps

Hi Mr Ryan.. I really love what you are doing..Music therapy is a wonderful research..It is a fabulous fusion of music in medicine...Its a miracle..Medically, autism and down syndrome childrens unable to respond to any of action but with music they able to communicate and react..i find it amusing.. I am from Malaysia..MT is not well practised over here but they are group of community working hard to bring awareness to public about MT..Just would like to ask you what kind of efforts do you make to get more attention from the public and do u hv any plans to do it internationally..how can we lend a hand in that...
Beautiful
So perfect 💙
