“Drumming together as a group really takes the clients out of the ‘now’ and allows them to be free from their stresses, problems, and addictions for that period of time. After, I definitely see a more relaxed temporary state in our clients.”   Tom Nicholas, M.S.W., The Journey at Willowcreek

“The drumming brings our clients—who range in age from 19 to 70—together in unison. It also can bring out the lack of harmony allowing them to bring the rhythm back into unison. It is a nonverbal process that allows individuals to be in touch with themselves as well as begin to communicate with those around them through the rhythm…it serves as a diagnostic tool because you see how well an individual is functioning kinesthetically and whether they are having difficulty with neurological patterning.”  Patricia A. Toomey MS,ADTR,MS,LPC. Movement Psychotherapist and Licensed Professional Counselor
