Music therapy is increasingly being used as an intervention for stress reduction in both medical and mental healthcare settings. Music therapy is characterized by personally tailored music interventions initiated by a trained and qualified music therapist, which distinguishes music therapy from other music interventions, such as 'music medicine', which concerns mainly music listening interventions offered by healthcare professionals. To summarize the growing body of empirical research on music therapy, a multilevel meta-analysis, containing 47 studies, 76 effect sizes and 2.747 participants, was performed to assess the strength of the effects of music therapy on both physiological and psychological stress-related outcomes, and to test potential moderators of the intervention effects. Results showed that music therapy showed an overall medium-to-large effect on stress-related outcomes (d = .723, [.51-.94]). Larger effects were found for clinical controlled trials (CCT) compared to randomized controlled trials (RCT), waiting list controls instead of care as usual (CAU) or other stress-reducing interventions, and for studies conducted in Non-Western countries compared to Western countries. Implications for both music therapy and future research are discussed.

“…Microskills training imparts skills needed to verbally process text, musical elements and/or clients' associations, and development of these skills may improve the quality of music therapy interventions like song discussion. Equally as important, the skills learned in the microskills model are applicable to group and individual experiences, to a variety of settings including hospice, medical, and mental health, and to communication with parents and colleagues (Baek, 2007;Gooding, 2014;Nolan, 2005;Pitts & Cevasco, 2013;Pitts & Silverman, 2015). The adaptability and flexibility of this model lends itself to inclusion in music therapy training and practice.…”

“…Therapists practicing from this perspective use music interventions to explore and discuss an individual's extra-musical experiences (Gardstrom, 2001). Verbal processing might be used to increase awareness, understanding, or insight; provide opportunities for transfer from musical settings to everyday settings; or allow individuals to make personal connections between verbal discourse and life events (Gardstrom, 2001;Nolan, 2005;Pitts & Silverman, 2015;Salmon, 2008). Verbal processing may also promote increased awareness of the present moment (Lindblad, 2016) or facilitate psychoeducation (Silverman, 2009).…”

Abstr Abstract actMusic therapy scholars have suggested that verbal processing is widely integrated into music therapy practice, though specific implementation varies based on the therapeutic approach and the clients' level of functioning. Results from music therapy studies have suggested that clients find verbal processing both important and useful, yet the development of verbal processing skills can be difficult for music therapists and music therapy students. Given the complexity of the skills needed, inclusion of a model or framework may help focus and organize skill development. One model that may have wide utility among music therapy practice is the microskills model (microcounseling). Microcounseling is built upon ethical and cultural competence, addresses skills in a hierarchical manner, and can be combined with a number of theoretical approaches. Research shows that this model has been successfully translated into 21 languages, used in a range of helping professions, and taught in both traditional and self-instruction formats. Perhaps most importantly, the model initially focuses on skills needed by all music therapists, regardless of theoretical orientation, and then progresses to skills needed to effectively facilitate common music therapy interventions like song discussion. Combining this model with other elements of music therapy education may better promote skill development and guide music therapists in skill usage.
