“…Educational research in music therapy is still a relatively small area of research. In general, there are few empirical attempts to understand the professional development of students trained in art therapy, music therapy or dance movement therapy (Orkibi, 2013). Educational research in the field of music therapy has specifically included focus on the use of musical instruments and musical skills (Kennedy, 2001;Silverman, 2011), supervision (Forinash, 2001;Tanguay, 2008), clinical practice development (Madsen & Kaiser, 1999;Wheeler, 2002), models for self-experiential learning and psychotherapy in education (Gardstrom & Jackson, 2011;Murphy, 2007;Scheiby & Pedersen, 1999), reflexive journaling (Barry & O'Callaghan, 2008) and research on feminist pedagogy in music therapy (Hahna & Schwantes, 2011).…”
