About

Hi! I'm Haley Hanford, Board-Certified Music Therapist.

With over six years of experience working with individuals on the Autism Spectrum, with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD), and learning differences, my focus is on using music to empower children and young adults, adapting to their unique developmental journeys, and integrating with their other therapies and daily life.


I create personalized, evidence-based interventions tailored to each client’s needs and strengths, prioritizing what matters most to them and their families. In both one-on-one and group settings, I provide a safe and nurturing environment that enhances cognitive, communication, motor, and social skills, aiming to improve academic abilities, communication, motor coordination, and self-esteem through supportive and engaging music therapy.

What Parents Are Saying

"B could barely say multisyllabic words and only spoke in simple sentences. After about 4 months of music therapy, he started using age-appropriate sentences and pronouncing words clearly at age 9. B loved working with Haley—her groups helped him socialize with friends, and we parents bonded as well. Some of us even started playing instruments together, which improved our mental health too. I always tell people music therapy has helped our family faster than other therapies like ABA, speech, or OT. It’s been amazing for Branden, diagnosed with autism, speech delay, and ADHD."
