Résumé

La grande révélation: Les Expériences d'une Musicothérapeute Handicapé Enregistrée en Australie, Une projet de Recherche Basée sur les Arts

Le handicap est un phénomène humain vécu non pas par une petite minorité mais par une grande pourcentage de notre population mondiale. Le handicap est rencontré par des personnes de toutes ethnies, religions, genres (et non-conformes), sexualités, milieux socio-économiques, et les âges. La littérature récente sur la musicothérapie a plaidé pour une main-d'œuvre diversifiée et d'autres décrivent la valeur pour les musicothérapeutes d'adopter une lentille intersectionnelle, qui considère l'interdépendance des identités sociales et politiques. cependant, il y a un dialogue limité sur les expériences vécues des musicothérapeutes de sous-représentés identités, telles que le handicap. Cette recherche a cherché à sonder les experiences des musicothérapeutes enregistrés en Australie qui s'identifient comme ayant un handicap et d'explorer comment leur handicap peut avoir un impact ou informer leur pratique. Un musicothérapeute australien enregistrée (RMT) identifié comme handicapé a été interviewé. L'étudiant-chercheur engagé dans la recherche artistique à travers la composition musicale pour permettre une analyse incarnée et présenter les résultats dans un format accessible. Plusieurs thèmes ont été révélés, notamment; handicap caché, divulgation du handicap, alliance, transfert positif, visibilité et identité. Ces résultats démontrent la importance des expériences vécues dans la communauté de la musicothérapie et appelle à amplifier diverses voix des personnes handicapées et d'autres identités qui se croisent au sein de notre profession. Reconnaître le travail des musicothérapeutes handicapés peut constituer un défi supplémentaire contre les attitudes capacitistes dans notre société et offrir des options aux participants qui pourraient préfèrent travailler avec des thérapeutes qui ont une expérience vécue pertinente.
