HD 3582 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to music therapy licensure

This bill would establish a state board to regulate music therapy licensure. It directly affects music therapists seeking to practice professionally and patients receiving music therapy services. The key provision creates a new board under the Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure committee to set standards, issue licenses, and oversee compliance for music therapists. This would require practitioners to meet specific qualifications before offering services to the public. The bill does not change therapy practices but creates a formal licensing process.
