| 8 | Music Therapy Sessions | |||||||||||||||||
|
A single typical music therapy
session is not realistic. Music
therapists design sessions and
select music specifically suited
to an individual patient's
treatment plan. In a hospital setting, a music
therapist adapts to the needs of
several patients seen in sequence,
usually on a single floor. Accompanied
by a cart equipped with musical
instruments, song books, and
recorded music, a therapist
travels from room to room, conducting
therapy sessions varying in length
from 15-60 minutes. A
session may involve only the therapist
providing music or of both therapist
and patient (and often family
or caregivers) making music together.
