Transforming Lives and Relationships Through
MUSIC THERAPY & COUNSELING
Welcome to Mewsic Moves!
Music therapy is an evidence-based creative arts therapy method that focuses on the intricate rhythmic and vocal aspects of music to improve mental and functional health. The art of music therapy is practiced by few, but world-renown for its ability to soothe, cultivate, and transform lives of those who need additional help in daily functions. This is especially successful for children as music is proven to speak to the minds of our young ones way before we can.
Since 2004, I have been using music therapy to improve the quality of life for children, families and individuals with special needs, as well as in treatment programs for adults and adolescents who struggle with the daily challenges of addiction, eating disorders and mental health issues.It is clinically and evidence-based therapy that successfully helps children and individuals accomplish their goals.
By carefully incorporating musical elements into specifically-designed programs, it is effective at targeting and improving a range of skills including social, communication, learning, memory, behavioral, emotional and self-regulation. Sessions are held one-to-one or as a group. Program goals are established following an initial assessment and are revised once they are achieved.
By building upon the strengths of each individual, we can increase their self-esteem and confidence, thereby helping them achieve the desired goals more effectively and efficiently.
Mewsic Moves also provides online support and educational material outlining the effects of music therapy. Mewsic provides songs and videos to educate others.

Jacob’s Journey: Taming my Icky Thoughts with Calm Melodies
A new book from John Mews, LMFT, NMT
Jacob’s mind is full of icky thoughts. They tell him he’s not good enough, not loved, and that he can’t do anything right. He tries to fight them, but they keep coming back. When he finally shares how he feels with his mum, she listens and helps. With the support of a music therapist, Jacob learns a new way to face the thoughts that scare him. Together, they put those feelings into a song.
This heartwarming story helps children spot unkind thoughts, talk about them, and turn them into calmer, kinder ones. With a memorable tune and the warmth of family, Jacob’s Journey gives children real tools for building emotional strength and reminds them they are never alone.
Included in the book are several easy-to-use, downloadable resources that make this book perfect for parents, therapists and educators alike.
