Summary

This study looks at whether music therapy can help children and teenagers with mood disorders who also hurt themselves (called non-suicidal self-injury, or NSSI). About 54 participants will take part, and researchers will use questionnaires, brain scans, and electrical brain activity tests to see if music therapy reduces anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts. The goal is to understand how music therapy works in the brain to ease emotional distress.
