Help for Anxiety and Depression in Midlothian, Texas
Music for the Soul
Music is a tool that you can use to help regulate your emotions by giving you a way to describe exactly how you feel when it’s hard to find the words on your own.
I’d like to introduce you to my friend, Steve Siler, songwriter and visionary with Music for the Soul. In the video below, he’ll explain more about how trauma impacts your brain and the way music helps to heal. As a songwriter, he has written and created a library of songs that speak to various issues.
