Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to off er a music therapy model for integration into current counseling services available to corrections clients within the Oregon prison system. Such a model was developed by reviewing existing literature and examining current therapeutic structure within the corrections system. The goal of this examination was to: (a) review the historical development and effectiveness of music therapy; (b) examine the elements of music and its effects on humans; and (c) investigate characteristics of the off ender and provide an overview of client issues, treatment goals, and interventions of counselors working with inmates.

Issues significant to the corrections client were compared to treatment issues of populations where music therapy has been found to be effective. This comparative analysis was then used to develop a conceptual model of music therapy as an adjunct approach to counseling corrections clients.
