Research Paper: Music Therapy Abstract There are many different ways that we benefit from music. Music can inspire better self-esteem, and confidence. It’s a great way to set the mood, and a wonderful tool. Music therapy is the clinical and evidence-based use of music interventions to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship by a credentialed professional who has completed an approved music therapy program (Gram, 2005). Music therapy can reach out to anyone, age

my bachelor’s degree in exercise science with an emphasis in physical education. Eventually, I want to go into occupational therapy (OT) as an occupational therapy assistant (OTA). OT involves helping people of all ages participate in everyday activities. The assistant is the one who works one on one with the patients instead of administrative work (“About Occupational Therapy, 2017). I felt that an exercise science major coincided with well with OT since it fulfilled a lot of the prerequisites. Kinesiology

For what it’s worth, this has been my first time ever really delving into and learning about the Gestalt Theory of Counseling. From my understanding, I view Gestalt therapy as focusing on and being self-aware of the here and now, but also being able to bring up past events (or as the text refers to it “baggage”) and projecting them into the present moment. It feels like instead of just talking about past experiences that still bother us, or that are “unfinished”, we are attempting to resolve them

identity of the patients with MS. Despite the modern technologies for physical rehabilitation, there are a few agents to improve psychosocial status. This journey was not meant to be a therapy, but was more of a project to promote exercise. After studying the results, we can suggest that a journey like this can be a therapy on the psychosocial domain. Participating in a challenging hike, can be physically or emotionally difficult for the patient with MS. To complete this kind of journey in a peer-group

The Path of Respiratory Therapy Introduction About a year ago, I came home from work one night and walked into the kitchen to where my mother was standing. There was a feeling of uneasiness and the panic began to clench my stomach. She looked so sad, so stressed; maybe it was the frizzy hair, the bags beneath her eyes, the way her back slouched in a low negative curve, or her eyes. Her eyes looked at me before she turned them away, but in that fragment of a second, it’s almost like I could look

For Rogers, “the aim of therapy is not to solve one particular problem, but to assist the individual to grow” and “Therapy is . . . a matter of freeing him for normal growth and development, of removing obstacles so that he can again move forward” (Anderson 608). Growth in this context is separated into two criteria, the first being the creation of difference and the second the integration of differences. The creation of difference is simply being able to differentiate while the integration of differences

obstacle or an obstruction in the development and progress of an individual or an activity. In an outpatient clinic where most of the therapy is accessible to the patient, there might be certain hindrances to the developmental progress. This usually is faced by patients and therapist as barriers of various forms. Most of the patients dealt with in a physical therapy department are ones who are undergoing treatment for conditions that are most often seen as chronic. Relief in cases like these require

Occupational therapy can help kids with different needs to improve cognitive, physical, sensory, and motor skills in order to enhance their self-esteem and sense of accomplishments. It also focuses on helping people with a physical, sensory or cognitive disability be as independent as possible in all areas of his or her life. The body and mind are not separate functions; therefore, motor development activities are important for young children. Young children learn through sensory-motor functions

1)Carl Rogers (1951 in Seligman & Reichenberg, 2014) initially termed nondirective therapy that gives emphasis to the significance that the client is in charge as counselors do not influence change. Counselors are not unresponsive to client’s contribution to making sure the essential circumstances are favorable for the development and progress of the client. Therefore, Rogers suggests that a total non-directivity is unattainable. Amid the counselor’s question, thoughts and choices posed to the client
