MU 607
SEUS in MPT II
Through the exploration of group analytic music therapy and
supervision, students present their own case material and learn
to apply knowledge of the therapist’s self on the
psychotherapeutic process. The interplay between musical and
verbal communication and analysis is a crucial facet of the
course and students learn to structure and facilitate the
therapeutic process by observing and analyzing both verbal and
musical group psychotherapy interventions. The safe and
effective use of self in the therapeutic relationship, vicarious
and secondary traumatization, compassion fatigue, and burn
out are explored and students learn to integrate knowledge of
the impact of the therapist's self on the therapeutic process,
recognize how the therapist's values and attitudes, both in and
out of awareness, may impact diverse clients and how their
cognitive, emotional, and behavioural patterns may influence
therapeutic relationship. They learn making disclosure only
where permitted or required. They also learn the importance of
maintaining personal physical, psychological, cognitive and
emotional fitness to practice. They learn appropriate self-care
necessary for responsible therapy. Students begin to build and
use a personal and professional support network and learn to
articulate parameters of supervision/consultation and
why/when to initiate clinical supervision/consultation/legal
consultation. This course is closely linked and integrated with
MU604, 2- year students’ clinical placement and the clinical
experiences are discussed during the class.
Prerequisites: 2 year students: MU603.
Corequisites: 2 year students: MU604.
