MU 501
MPT Foundations
This course introduces foundations of music psychotherapy
practice through the investigation of diverse client populations
with different lifespan, diagnosis, and cultural orientation.
Students learn to integrate knowledge of human development
across the lifespan, psychopathology, and major diagnostic
categories. The focus is on therapeutic competencies and
interventions required for culturally relevant and ethical clinical
practice. Current, contemporary theories practiced in Ontario
will be explored and compared with music psychotherapy
practices and the most typical music psychotherapy theories,
approaches, and treatment models. Different needs of diverse
client populations are integrated with best practises through
case studies, readings, and experiential demonstration.
Limitations of music psychotherapy will be discussed and the
different role of the therapist in relation to other health
professionals including frameworks for interprofessional care.
This course equips students for MU504, their first clinical
placement.
