Absolutely: Music therapy may aid in relaxation and decreased anxiety. It may also help a person with anxiety and trouble with sleep onset be able to get proper rest. Proper rest and decrease in anxiety symptoms will aid depression. Also, with depression treatment, you should make time for yourself to do enjoyable activities, such as music, if you like it.
