Why KS Therapy Services is Right for You

  • Approachable - Find the therapist who you click with

    Ever felt like therapy seemed too stuffy or that your therapist didn’t “get” you? That’s exactly what we DON’T want. We can match you with the therapist who’s style and personality fits you best. Our down-to-earth approach means that we strive to help you feel more comfortable and for your therapy to feel personable.

  • Accessible - Traditional talk therapy isn’t for everyone

    We want you to have options and for your therapy to be as accessible as possible. Our affordable therapy program means we can offer services to suit any budget. We offer different forms of therapy, including music therapy, since talking through your problems isn’t for everyone. With both in-person and online services, you can choose what is going to work best and book these at your convenience through our online booking system. Prefer to have your therapist manage your bookings? That works too.

  • Collaborative & Tailored - We know that therapy isn’t “one-size-fits-all”

    Everyone is different, so your therapy should be too. Our therapists get the importance of collaborating with you to figure out the best approach for your treatment. We have therapists trained in many different therapy approaches and can pair you with the one that best suits your needs. We work at your pace, on what is important to you.

    Is Music Therapy for you?

Is Music Therapy for you?

If you are looking to better your mental health and well-being creatively, music therapy with KS Therapy Services could be a good fit!

Not sure if you’d prefer traditional talk therapy or music therapy? At KSTS, we provide mental-health focused music therapy; all our music therapists are trained in verbal counselling AND music therapy. That means we can move flexibly between words and music, depending on what is going to work best for you. Sessions might not look much different than traditional therapy, involving as music or as little music as you want. There is no musical experience required to benefit.

For many people, music is already important for their well-being. By incorporating music in therapy, we harness this inherent therapeutic power in sessions. Clients often say that music can help them put words to experiences or allow them to express what they are feeling without words. It can also help you feel more comfortable with me and the therapeutic process. It is important that you feel comfortable with your therapist!
