This symposium will include presentations of Supportive Music and Imagery (SMI) and Re-educative Music and Imagery (RMI). These Music and Imagery (MI) methods involve clients in art-making whilst listening to music of their choice, and are part of the contemporary spectrum of Guided Imagery and Music (GIM) methods. SMI focuses on developing client’s inner resources, strengths and resilience, RMI on psychological and emotional issues affecting client’s mental health.
The symposium has been organized as a CPD event both for those trained in MI and for music therapists and others considering training. The morning will begin with an introductory session for those not trained in MI. Further information about MI, GIM and training can be found at: www.integrativegim.org.
The day will include four presentations and a workshop:
- Introduction to Music & Imagery (Helen Wallace-Bell)
- Using Music-Imagery to treat chronic shame in psychotherapy practice (Cathy Rowland)
- The Way We Were: A multi-method approach to music therapy to support an adult with a learning disability through bereavement (Helen Wallace-Bell)
- An adoptive mother’s journey of self-acceptance through MI (Crystal Luk-Worrall)
- Workshop: What can Music & Imagery draw from Art Therapy as knowledge and practice inspiration? (Dr Dimitra Theodoropoulou)
