Music Therapy in a Multicultural Context: A Handbook for Music Therapy Students and Professionals

Music therapy professionals cater to a diverse population, in terms of heritage, ethnicity, age, location, and identity. This book provides the knowledge, skills, and cultural sensitivities music therapists need to practice culturally informed music therapy. Included are case studies and practical music examples that promote cultural awareness.

Music therapy professionals work with diverse population groups, and this book provides therapists, and those in training, with the tools to integrate understanding of different cultural and social identities into their practice.

Topics addressed include heritage, age, location, identity and health beliefs, and how to understand the dynamics of the variety of different cultures which music therapists will encounter in the course of their practice. Each chapter is written by an expert on a topic of personal interest in music therapy, explored through a multicultural lens. The chapters include anecdotes, case studies, and practical activities to try, while encouraging the reader to reflect on their own identity as a music therapist.

This book is essential reading for all music therapy professionals wanting to practice in a culturally-informed manner, and respect the needs, contributions and strengths of every client.
