Music Therapy Methods In The Treatment Of Gambling Addiction
Erkkilä, Jaakko
Abstract
The music therapy methods mixed with other methods formed a combination that is suitable in many ways for the treatment of the gambling addiction. An approach with multiple methods makes the treatment flexible and varied, which facilitates the process of commitment. This is important with the gamblers who are typically impulsive and who often have problems in commitment Having individual phases between the more stressful group process phases seemed to reduce mental stress and help the clients to continue the process. On the other hand, the study found places for improvement in the treatment program. Another aspect that has to be constructed carefully in future treatment programs is the group formation, which can have a large effect on the functioning of the treatment during the group phase. Finally, future studies should investigate the physiological effects of the PhA treatment in more detail, especially concerning the effects of music and music therapeutical methods.
