Spiritually Integrated Music Therapy: An Introduction to Foundations, Ethics & Assessment

Religion, spirituality and the practice of music therapy intersect in intuitive and organic ways, yet many music therapists feel the need for additional skills with which to engage these dynamics in depth. Participants will explore the foundations of addressing religious and spiritual issues from an ethically grounded and self-aware perspective and will consider ways of assessing clients’ spiritual resources and struggles.

Prerequisite: MT-BC or current enrollment in a music therapy master's or master's equivalency program.
