THE MUSIC THERAPY WORKS MODEL OF MUSIC THERAPY

MTW practises a specific model of therapy developed and refined over 25 years. It is an evidence-based and outcomes-led intervention delivered by specialist music therapists who practice within a clear and specific framework.

MTW therapists are trained to base their work on psychotherapeutic approaches. This allows them to deliver intensive interventions which reach beyond the already profound power of using music alone as a therapeutic tool, The MTW approach provides clarity, support and expertise in processing issues such as trauma, attachment, bereavement, developmental issues, life-limiting illness, and mental health concerns.

The MTW model of music therapy is often used as a lead onsite health provision, linking to both internal and external agencies. MTW therapists are experienced delivering complex and clinically refined techniques, whilst providing clear quantitative and qualitative reporting and evaluation.

OUR THERAPISTS

MTW music therapists are selected using specific criteria and hold high levels of expertise and competency. They engage in an ongoing programme of CPD and receive clinical supervision from MTW approved supervisors. MTW managers are always available to support therapists and ensure the best possible service for our clients.

As well as providing a music therapy service of excellence to individual clients, many of our music therapists are able to advise at an organisational level and provide a variety of additional support services.

"As an MTW approved supervisor, I have witnessed MTW MTs encouraging, reflecting and reaching deeply held feelings that may not have otherwise ever have been expressed or heard. They then use these observations and information to determine the best way forward for a successful therapeutic process."

“Music allows us to meet clients at these moments where there are no words. It provides a language which the music therapist uses to allow each individual to process and move through even the most unbearable experiences.”
