Westmount Music Therapy

We’re officially moved! 🎶

After months of planning, renovating, painting, building, and problem-solving, Westmount Music Therapy is now up and running in our new home at 4994 Boul. de Maisonneuve Ouest, Suite 104.

This week we welcomed our first clients into the new space, and it was incredibly special to see the rooms already filling with music, connection, and joy.

I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported this project — through donations, encouragement, advice, and sharing our fundraiser. It truly helped make this move possible.

We still have a few things left to finish — including instruments, equipment, and some final improvements to make the space as supportive and accessible as possible for the children and families we work with.

If you’d like to continue supporting the project, our GoFundMe is still open, and every contribution helps us keep building this space for our community.

Thank you for believing in Westmount Music Therapy and in the power of music. ❤️

Westmount Music Therapy is finally home!!! From the moment we got the keys to the first clients walking through the door. What a journey. Thank you for helping make this possible.

🌟 Big news from Westmount Music Therapy! 🌟

We’ve officially secured our new space — just a few blocks away, and we couldn’t be more excited to build a beautiful, accessible home for our community! 🎶✨

The space is still bare bones, and we have 6 months to make it perfect — soundproof rooms, sensory spaces, and all the little details that make our work special. 💛

We’ve launched a GoFundMe to help cover some of these extra costs. Every bit truly helps us create a warm, inclusive environment for our clients and families.

Thank you for believing in music therapy, and in us. ❤️

Hey everyone! The time change is particularly hard on people with special needs, but I don’t need to tell you.

The Quebec government has launched a survey on whether we should keep changing the clocks twice a year. Please fill it out and share with everyone you know. Quebec seems to want to be seen as the emo neighbour who has a different time zone than everyone else- so please vote for DST (summer time). We deserve that extra hour of evening.
