| dc.description.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. | en_US |

Musical experience and the pursuit of music therapy: the influence of active music makingThis qualitative study explores the relationship between one’s musical experience and the decision to become and remain a professional music therapist. This study includes interviews with six board certified music therapists ranging from 4-15 years of experience in the field. Three questions were asked during the interview process regarding the lived musical experience of these therapists: 1) Describe the role of active music making throughout your life; 2) What do you perceive as the relationship between music experience and choosing music therapy as a career?; and 3) What role does active music making play in your decision to maintain a career in music therapy? Once the interview process was complete, a thematic analysis was done to formulate main themes and codes within the interviews. These themes and codes were then supported by interview quotes as a form of evidence. After reviewing all findings, a reflection was done focusing on the key aspects of the interviews and personal thoughts regarding the results. These key aspects included the participants’ relationship to music, active music making experiences, competencies, primary education, educational privilege, collegiate education, and self-identity.

Music and mindfulness: a rapid review of music and music therapy’s implementation with mindfulness practiceThe modern practice of mindfulness has been used to clinically treat stress, active depression, depression relapse, addiction recovery, and eating disorders, and to promote self-awareness and acceptance. Mindfulness skills and mindfulness meditation have been used in conjunction with theoretical applications, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectic behavioral therapy, and positive psychology, as well as creative arts therapies, such as dance/movement therapy, Insight Improvisation, and art therapy, to affect change. Though mindfulness has also been used with music and music therapy to achieve similar goals, a minimal amount of literature exists that directly discusses this. This rapid review summarizes the quantitative research published between January 2012 and July 2022 investigating the implementation of music with mindfulness practice. Recommendations for research are also included.

Music Therapy and Depression: Music Therapy in Conjunction with Standard Therapies May Increase Positive ResultsDepression is one of the most common mental illnesses in the world. In the United States, some 7% of the total population experienced an episode of major depression in 2017 (nimh.nih.gov). While treatment is usually prescribed in the form of behavioral therapy, medication, or a combination of the two, the novel treatment of music therapy is not typically prescribed. For people who are diagnosed with major depression, the rate of recovery is about 52%, and is higher in those with higher levels of education and a willingness to adhere to conventional psychotherapy. Clearly, depression is an illness that requires innovative approaches. Music therapy is an increasingly common modality used to treat many types of human ailments such as posttraumatic stress disorder, recovery from surgery, and high blood pressure. Music acts as an emotional stimulant for listeners- even in those with depression. Music therapy combined with conventional therapy can offer patients with depression the emotional breakthrough needed to recover (Aalbers et al).
