Abstract:
Music therapy is becoming increasingly prevalent in rehabilitation programs serving military and Veteran populations in the United States. Music therapy is integrated into interdisciplinary models and positioned to treat brain injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other psychological health conditions at military installations and Veteran medical centers nationwide. Phased group music therapy is delivered in a longitudinal treatment model to assist in the rehabilitation of service members and Veterans. Different phases of group music therapy are aligned with a treatment trajectory that exists on a clinic to community continuum to support recovery and reintegration. This article provides a description and case presentations of clinical programming. Information was accessed from patients\' electronic medical records, clinical documentation, therapist observation, and patient interviews. Interviews were transcribed and a content analysis was conducted by the authors. Emergent themes from the patient interviews included social relationships, community reintegration and transition, and post-military occupational success. Patients reported that group music therapy provided skill-building opportunities that were helpful for them during military service transitions, specifically active duty to Veteran status. Support skills included rapport-building and enhanced camaraderie. Furthermore, music therapy appeared to bolster peer connections through shared experiences, which decreased isolation, increased socialization, and supported reintegration.
摘要:
音乐疗法在为美国军事和退伍军人服务的康复计划中变得越来越普遍。音乐疗法被整合到跨学科模式中,并定位为治疗脑损伤,创伤后应激障碍,以及全国军事设施和退伍军人医疗中心的其他心理健康状况。分阶段团体音乐疗法以纵向治疗模式提供,以协助服务成员和退伍军人的康复。团体音乐疗法的不同阶段与诊所到社区连续体中存在的治疗轨迹保持一致,以支持康复和重返社会。本文提供了临床编程的描述和案例介绍。从病人的电子病历中获取信息,临床文件,治疗师观察,耐心的采访。作者对访谈进行了转录,并进行了内容分析。患者访谈中出现的主题包括社会关系,社区重返社会和过渡,和军事后的职业成功。患者报告说,团体音乐疗法提供了在兵役过渡期间对他们有帮助的技能培养机会,特别是现役到退伍军人身份。支持技能包括建立融洽的关系和增强的友情。此外,音乐疗法似乎通过分享经验来加强同伴联系,减少了孤立,社会化程度提高,并支持重返社会。
