Music-based services are offerings that use music as the core medium to deliver entertainment, education, therapy, or engagement.

Music-based services provide experiences and solutions through the creation, performance, teaching, or application of music. These services may include live or recorded music, interactive sessions, or customized programs designed to meet specific personal, educational, therapeutic, or commercial needs. They aim to enhance emotional well-being, support learning and development, strengthen social connection, and enrich events or environments through the power of music.

We offer a variety of therapeutic and recreational music-based services including:

  • Music Therapy (Individual and Group)
  • Music-Based Community Classes
  • Adaptive Lessons (Voice, percussion, guitar, piano)
  • Sound Healing (Individual and Group)
  • Hidden Treasures Theater and Arts Program

If you are interested in scheduling an assessment or consultation, please reach out to our staff music therapist, Jaclyn Sinclair, at jaclyn@winslow.org or call our main line at 845-986-6686.

Jaclyn Sinclair MT-BC, MS in Music Therapy

Jaclyn is a Board-Certified Music Therapist who got her start right here at Winslow.  Following college at George Mason University where she studied marketing and minored in music performance, Jaclyn was unsure about choosing either as a career path.  After speaking with Virginia Mazza (Winslow co-founder) about her situation, she responded with “you’re coming to Winslow!” Jaclyn started as a volunteer and quickly learned the profound effects of therapeutic riding and the impact it has on the individual.

Shortly after, Jaclyn attended SUNY New Paltz where she graduated with a Masters in Music Therapy and received her Music Therapy Board Certification (MT-BC) in 2014.  Jaclyn was welcomed back to Winslow as a professional music therapist and spent three years working with adults and children with special needs.  Since that time, Jaclyn has worked all over the tristate area continually developing her skills and working with a variety of populations. The diversity and flexibility of music therapy and music-based services makes it applicable to so many in need including mental health diagnoses, traumatic brain injury, cognitive disorders, early childhood, ASD, IDD, etc.
