Group Analytic Music Therapy

This book details how images created during an analytically oriented music therapy group can be used for therapeutic benefit. The book is divided into three parts: 1) philosophical foundations of GAMT; 2) the theory and method of GAMT, including a detailed discussion of "musical images;" 3) an extended case study of Mary, an invisible woman who turned visible and found her voice during GAMT. Apart from being a first of its kind in the music therapy field, this book expands group music therapy theories and proposes a new way of defining clinical group music therapy practice.
