Countertransference in End-of-Life Music Therapy

Abstract

Countertransference is a complex and important issue for end-of-life music therapists. However, limited literature is available on the subject of end-of-life music therapy and countertransference to guide professionals as we encounter the effects of countertransference inside and outside sessions. There are circumstances associated with end-of-life music therapy that require a closer look, that demand recognition, and that may result in better music experiences for our clients. The purpose of this article is to explore the experiences and influences of countertransference in the unique situations presented by end-of-life music therapy, thus increasing readers' awareness of the potential impact of countertransference upon their clinical practices.
