It is a common symptom of many chronic and mental illnesses. This case study outlines a four-month music therapy program with one individual experiencing anhedonia. In this study, the authors investigated whether brief, daily, guided musicking activity would lead to increased anticipatory and consummatory pleasure for the case study participant. Analysis of numerical data supported this hypothesis. Subsequent analysis of descriptive data articulated key features of the action and experience of the guided musicking process for both the music therapy participant and guide. Findings from this study indicated that music within a therapeutic relationship supported positive outcomes in this case. Further research is needed to understand the potential impact of guided musicking activity for other people with anhedonia.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47590,"journal":{"name":"Arts in Psychotherapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142040484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This multi-interpretivist case study analysed caregiver diaries, caregiver interviews, music therapist clinical notes and a reflexive journal to uncover the processes that supported the families. A thematic data analysis revealed a five-step process for supporting these families. This five-step process included the family observing and reflecting on music therapy practice, working as partners with the music therapist, engaging in joint-music making with the music therapist and their child, consciously observing subtle engagement cues from their child and then independently engaging in music-making with their child. This study provides a framework for music therapists to support families of children with PIMD in home settings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47590,"journal":{"name":"Arts in Psychotherapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0197455624000856/pdfft?md5=a521aa2b4e454b07a5d7666053d22d6a&pid=1-s2.0-S0197455624000856-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141944717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of the study was to describe the methods used in the group and to analyze the themes identified in the participants’ written reflections on their experiences with their illness. Specifically, the study sought to answer the following questions: 1) What kinds of things were found meaningful by the participants in writing about their experiences with breast cancer? 2) How were these things thematized through the process of facilitated reflective and transformative writing? Participants’ writings were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Three main themes, along with several sub-themes, were identified. The main themes were: 1) being seen and heard as a breast cancer survivor, 2) the traces left by the disease, and 3) I live and breathe despite the disease. This study provides new insights into how breast cancer becomes integrated into a person’s selfhood and life story.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47590,"journal":{"name":"Arts in Psychotherapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0197455624000790/pdfft?md5=c67b7cb70504a0bd75b23f427f2f6729&pid=1-s2.0-S0197455624000790-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141844420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cultural diversity refers to the differences that exist among groups of people with definable and unique cultural backgrounds. Inclusion puts diversity in practice by respecting and valuing diverse individuals and groups. Diversity representation in art therapy is “seeing” people and ensuring that their viewpoints can be found and represented. Cultural competence in art therapy research is the ability to take culture into account as a central variable that affects every aspect of a study; this fosters the interest, integrity, and dignity of participants and the diverse cultural context of their lives. A systematic review of art therapy research was conducted to provide a critical evaluation of data on diversity representation within existing studies conducted between 2010 – 2020. The ADDRESSING acronym, which evaluates nine aspects of cultural identity, is utilized as a guide for assessment and data collection. The results indicate that diversity representation within the studies was either minimal or non-existent and suggest a need for intentionality about including diversity representation to create a more inclusive art therapy environment.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47590,"journal":{"name":"Arts in Psychotherapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141582856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients’ anxiety, PDSS and PDQ8 were not significantly different post-intervention, but depression scores significantly improved in caregivers post-intervention.
