Episode description

So much more than making music; music therapy provides a unique conduit to achieving client goals.

In the second episode of this series about music therapy, our host Clinical Psychologist Professor Mark Creamer, and Registered Music Therapists: Dr Jason Kenner and Dr Jennifer Bibb explore what happens in a session.

Tune in to learn how music therapists adapt their practice to help a broad range of client groups including premature babies and their parents, older people, people experiencing psychosis, those at the end of their lives, and many others meet their needs. Jason even picks up his guitar to demonstrate how the same song can be modified for different therapeutic applications.
