Therapy Guides

The songs on the Heal the Child CDs  can be used in therapy either in a group setting or individual sessions. The study guides provide a framework for using the songs this way. A description of each lyric aids in selection of an appropriate song. In addition there are suggested questions to promote personal sharing.

A family therapist who has used the study guide describes how she uses the songs with the guide. “I like to play ‘The Lost Child’ and use the visualization in the guide as a first step. Those for whom visualization comes naturally will not need much more than this introduction and encouragement to continue on their own between sessions. Each song has a special meaning for the client and the reactions of my clients have reinforced my belief that music can be a powerful tool in helping to thaw frozen feelings.”
