  • Title: Is there a role for music therapy in the care of the severely mentally ill?
    Author: Grocke D, Bloch S, Castle D.
    Journal: Australas Psychiatry; 2008 Dec; 16(6):442-5. PubMed ID: 18785034.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: The role of music therapy in psychiatric care in Australia is briefly traced from the early 1990s to the present. With the shift to community-based care, contemporary music therapy practice for the severely mentally ill is reappraised alongside the principles of the recovery model. CONCLUSIONS: Music therapy is a viable option within the creative arts therapies for enhancing quality of life in people with severe and enduring mental illness.
