The Counseling Skills for Music Therapists course provides music therapists with basic and advanced verbal counseling theories and techniques and affords participants opportunities to practice skills in a clinical setting. Verbal processing is an essential component of music therapy practice, and many music therapists report having limited training in counseling skills. We focus on practical verbal processing skills that can be easily applied within music therapy sessions across all populations. This institute concludes with a song swap for participants to add to their repertoire. Participants will earn 16 CMTEs.
Participants in this course will:
Learn the fundamental theories guiding verbal counseling techniques
Identify ways to utilize music therapy techniques to prompt, support, and validate verbal counseling processes
Learn advanced counseling skills to support more complex client needs
Practice counseling skills under supervision in role-play scenarios
