Culturally-conscious music therapy has the power to create meaningful therapeutic connections between practitioners and clients from different backgrounds, and to support healing by honoring clients' heritages and experiences.
This essential handbook dives into the wide range of linguistic, historical, and cultural influences that shape different Latin American clients, and suggests ways to apply these contexts in music therapy settings. Stories, case studies, and research provide a comprehensive overview of both theory and its practical applications, allowing better client-centred practice. Examples shown through the perspective of therapists and clients demonstrate ways to develop culturally-competent practice, as well as highlighting its importance in supporting clients from different backgrounds and helping Latine therapists to weave their own heritage into their work.
A key resource for therapists and care professionals working with Latine and Hispanic clients, this guide broadens the horizons of music therapy and reinforces the diversity at its heart.
