JAM music therapy was established by Helen Cameron, a registered music therapist, in 1998.

 

After working in Local Government for several years Helen saw a need for after hours group music therapy for people with disabilities so that they could meet new people, outside of family and work, and be involved in an activity at the top of their preferences - music.

 

And so, JAM was born based on a simple but inclusive concept:

People making music, creating community, jamming together.

 

Today, JAM provides individual and group music therapy sessions in Melbourne for different age groups and abilities.

Individual sessions are available to address specific aims or to prepare for group work.

 

Helen also consults and provides tailored music therapy programs for Special Developmental Schools, adult day centres, out of hours school programs and early intervention centres in and around Melbourne.
