Course description

NOT OFFERED 2009 This course teaches students to integrate theory learnt in class with music therapy practice on clinical placement. Class exercises are designed to give students practice experience at relating in a quasi-therapy context. Students will be taught advanced techniques in clinical improvisation, and develop an understanding of the ways in which improvised music can be used in individual work within a psychodynamic orientation. Verbal, non-verbal, and musical skills needed in therapeutic relationships within music therapy will be identified and explored. NOTE: Course offering may be cancelled unless a minimum of 15 students enrol.
