How we use
Music to help heal
At Studio 534, our dedication lies in establishing a secure space for vulnerable teenagers to unleash their creativity. Having successfully implemented five studios within treatment centers in Los Angeles, we are proud to announce the completion of our third studio in Las Vegas, forged through a partnership with one of the city's premier treatment facilities.
Recognizing the profound impact of music, we leverage its power to guide clients in reconnecting with their life experiences, both positive and negative. Our approach involves introducing music as a means to bridge their thoughts and emotions with melodies that may have been intertwined with moments of trauma or joy. It is crucial to discern the songs that resonate with each individual, facilitating a journey to revisit their experiences within a safe and comforting environment. Studio 534 is meticulously designed to emanate warmth, inviting openness, and ensuring safety. As clients begin to share how music has shaped their lives, we actively support them in discovering avenues for self-expression.
