This article reflects on the author’s work with Chun Yip (pseudonym) as an example of adopting therapeutic songwriting with dyslexic children in Hong Kong. The article is informed by the author’s observations and experiences during the sessions and ongoing personal reflections. The first section will offer descriptive vignettes and the author’s reflective analysis. Three themes will be emphasised: learning how to read Chinese words through therapeutic songwriting, drawing on the client’s resources throughout the process, and increasing reading motivation through therapeutic songwriting. The second section will more broadly discuss the potential implications of this case story for the use of therapeutic songwriting in supporting dyslexic children in Hong Kong towards further practice and research.
