Reviews for Music Therapy Supervision: Diverse Perspectives on its Cultures and Practices

Impactful supervision narratives, including improvisation-based facilitation, access supported through online offerings, peer groups shifting power dynamics, affinity spaces of color enhancing holistic growth, and sustained experiences reflecting years of supervision relationship. The meaningfulness of the book is further bolstered by robust co-creation and dialogical exchange between supervisor and supervisees. -- Dr. Hakeem Leonard, Associate Professor of Music Therapy, Shenandoah University, United States This book adopts a refreshingly inclusive stance on approaches and theories. Trainees, educators, supervisees, and supervisors share their experiences generously and authentically reflect on music therapy supervision. It is a fascinating read for all, including professionals seeking a creative approach to supervision. -- Dr Val Huet PhD, Art Therapist Reflecting the sense of inquiry and dynamic exchange in creative and thoughtful supervisory practice, this book offers perspectives on supervision that generate dialogue and thinking that will extend beyond supervision spaces. -- Dr Philippa Derrington, Programme Leader, Music Therapy, Queen Margaret University Edinburgh
