Abstract

In this text, I present examples of music therapy case material from my two professional perspectives as a practising music therapist and speech and language therapist. With a focus on communication, I highlight some of the similarities and differences in my thought processes from these two separate perspectives and reflect more generally on aspects of the work I found of interest as a dual practitioner.
