A guitar for Sam who loves music and wants to learn something new

Posted Mar 21, 2018
Sam struggles with managing his moods, and has a hard time calming himself when he gets worked up. Prior to removal, he used video games and electronics as a coping skill, however, he now lives with his grandparents on a farm and has struggled to find a new coping method. His therapist believes despite his cognitive delay, Sam will be able to learn to play guitar. Sam loves music and thinks guitar players are "cool." He would love to use this as a method to help cope with emotions (as well as be fun)!

Sam is 20 years old and lives in IN

Sam is an amazing young man who is struggling to overcome so much. He has an exceptional sense of humor and is very friendly. While most of his childhood has been spent in residential psychological facilities, he has somehow managed to see some light at each one. He has utilized various coping mechanisms over the years including listening to and creating music, journalling, gaming, reading, and art.
