Music therapy is an internationally recognised field of
professional evidence-based practice. Qualified music therapists
use the engaging, non-verbal aspects of music to create
relationships in which therapeutic goals can be pursued and needs
of clients addressed.
This is the first book to focus specifically on the ways that music
therapists provide support for the development of the special and
necessary bond between parents and their infants, where some
vulnerability is experienced. In the book, music therapists from
four countries, Australia, Ireland, the UK and the US describe
their practices with reference to contemporary theory and research.
Throughout, the chapters are illustrated with engaging case
material. Many of the authors are the world leaders in the area of
music therapy to promote parent and infant bonding. Others are
having their first opportunity to describe their work publicly in
print. The focus in each chapter is on the need for this work, the
theoretical underpinnings of the practice, and the music therapy
practice itself.
The book is arranged in 3 sections. The first section covers work
in therapy sessions with children and their parents. The second
section describes programmes where the music therapist leads a
group of parents with their infants, such as the renowned Sing
& Grow in Australia. The final section presents work with
medical patients and their families including in the neonatal
intensive care unit, and for cancer patients.
The book will be valuable for music therapy practitioners and
students, and more broadly for all those in the field of infant
mental health.
