This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether virtual music therapy—participating in online sessions with a music therapist where you sing, move, and share memories together—can help people with mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer's disease. The study focuses on how personalized music experiences delivered through video calls might improve mood, help you reconnect with meaningful memories, and reduce difficult psychiatric symptoms that often come with these conditions.
Many people with early memory loss struggle with depression, anxiety, and feeling disconnected—problems that current medications don't fully address. This study explores whether this treatment offers a non-medication way to improve wellbeing and quality of life, especially for people who have difficulty traveling to in-person therapy or live in rural areas.
