Music Therapy

Wednesday, 18 January 2017 - 5:00pm to 5:30pm

On this week's show we speak to music therapist Dr Cherry Hense, a post-doctoral research fellow from Melbourne University specialising in young people's musical identities, about the ways in which music therapy can be used in the treatment of mental illness. More information on music therapy can be found at http://www.austmta.org.au/

Challenging the mainstream, negative stereotypes of people with a mental illness, Brainwaves actively engages those living with a mental illness as researchers, interviewers, performers and program designers while promoting community mental health awareness.
