Abstract
The following is a proposal for the addition of a music therapy program for the partial
hospitalization program at Monte Nido Eating Disorder Center in Manhattan, New York. Eating
disorders can have a devastating impact on a person’s mental, physical, and emotional health.
This proposal explains the benefits of implementing a music therapy program for clients
recovering from eating disorders. The addition of a music therapy program can allow for new
opportunities for clients to express their needs, form an identity beyond their eating disorder,
relieve symptoms associated with their eating disorders, and explore their emotions in a creative
outlet. This proposal outlines the clinical needs of clients with eating disorders, what services
would be provided, treatment methodologies, budgetary concerns, documentation, and projected
outcomes. The objective of this proposal is to explore and present the benefits music therapy can
provide for clients with eating disorders. The inclusion of a music therapy program will provide
further support of Monte Nido’s commitment to quality of care and attention to the benefits of an
interdisciplinary team.
