Description

This thesis explores the lived experiences of clients in group music therapy and those of music therapists providing services. It focuses on people who have endured or are living through potentially traumatic or stressful events such as resettlement and the COVID-19 pandemic. Ethnography and narrative interviewing were implemented with data analysed using Reflexive Thematic Analysis and Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. This research contributes to the music therapy field by understanding practices, processes, and approaches in working with clients in an inclusive and trauma-aware manner which considers connection, coping resources and strategies, and identity as integral for practitioner and client well-being.
