Clinical MPT Skills III
Students’ knowledge of the creative applications of clinical
improvisation with a variety of client populations is expanded.
Course includes advanced examination of musical idioms and
classical compositional styles and their effect on the therapeutic
process. Student’s ability to musically support clients from
diverse socio-cultural backgrounds is also developed through
the study of non-classical western art and music traditions,
such as blues, jazz, rap, along with non-western musical styles
from around the world. Through regular use of a practice
journal for self-reflection, clinical case study analysis, and role-play
using clinical scenarios, students integrate theory with
practice while exploring their own use of self during the
therapeutic process. Linking this course directly to clinical work
and students bring clinical issues to class for group analysis
and discussion.
