About Us
The All Abilities Learning Center is a vibrant division of Assure Healthcare Group of Arizona, dedicated to enriching the lives of adults with developmental disabilities. Our mission is to provide a safe, welcoming, and empowering space where each individual is seen, supported, and celebrated for their unique strengths.

We are more than just a day program—we are a community where music, creativity, and meaningful connection inspire personal growth and joy.

This is a unique opportunity to bring your creativity and clinical expertise into a program that blends fun with function—karaoke, rhythm circles, songwriting, instrument play, and music for emotional regulation are just the beginning!

The music therapist will provide services to around 11–15 clients per week, using individual session format to support client goals and enhance the overall program experience.

If you are a patient, compassionate, and collaborative professional who believes in the transformative power of music, we’d love to hear from you!

  • Facilitate individual music therapy sessions for 11–15 clients per week.
  • Maintain documentation of sessions and progress according to organizational and clinical standards.
  • Foster a respectful, inclusive, and fun environment that supports the holistic well-being of each member.

Required Qualifications

  • Board Certification in Music Therapy (MT-BC)
  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Music Therapy from an AMTA-approved program.
  • Completion of at least 1,200 clinical training hours, including a supervised internship.

  • Experience working in school, clinical, or special education settings preferred.
  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills.
  • Compassionate, creative, and flexible approach to working with individuals of varying abilities.

Why Join Us?
