- 요약Child welfare professionals in Florida provide support and resources for children and adolescents who have experienced maltreatment in the form of neglect, abuse, or abandonment. Providing children, adolescents, and families with effective therapeutic service options is essential in supporting their well-being. Music therapy is an effective therapeutic modality within the child welfare setting, helping children and adolescents achieve goals such as improving emotional expression, processing trauma, promoting resilience, improving social interaction, and developing a sense of identity. There is little known about how child welfare professionals perceive the clinical use of music and collaboration with music therapists. The purpose of this study was to explore child welfare professionals' perceptions and experiences using music in a clinical setting as well as their perceptions and experiences collaborating with music therapists. By using an explanatory sequential mixed methods design, this research was conducted in three phases: 1) quantitative data collection and analysis, 2) qualitative data collection and analysis, and 3) integration of quantitative and qualitative data. Forty-eight survey responses were included in the analysis, and seven follow-up interviews were conducted. The survey gauged respondents' perceptions of an online interprofessional education webinar, perceptions using music, and their perceptions and/or experiences collaborating with music therapists. The follow-up interviews provided deeper insights into participants' perceptions and experiences. Seven themes were identified from the interviews. Findings revealed that 37% of survey respondents reported using music within a clinical setting. Music was commonly used for rapport building and emotional expression. Interviews provided further insight on why child welfare providers were not using music. Reasons included a lack of understanding of how to use music, not having the opportunity to use music within non-clinical roles, and concerns regarding music-induced harm. The integration of data sets highlighted that child welfare professionals who had personal connections with music (self-care or are musicians) were more likely to use music in their clinical practice. Although the number of survey respondents who have experience collaborating with music therapists is low (n = 3), overall perceptions of collaboration were positive. Identified benefits of collaboration included improved client engagement, enhanced therapeutic outcomes, and increased interdisciplinary communication. Several barriers were identified as well, including a lack of knowledge and understanding of music therapy, difficulty finding a music therapist, a lack of funding knowledge, and systemic issues within the child welfare field. Participants expressed a desire for more interprofessional education regarding music therapy services within their service area.Implications for these findings include increasing music therapy education efforts throughout Florida, expanding the workforce of music therapists in Florida, especially in areas without music therapists, and learning more about the various child welfare systems in Florida. Future research should explore the long-term effects of collaboration between music therapists and child welfare providers, identify best practices when integrating music therapy into the child welfare system, and increase the research evidence of the effectiveness of music therapy with children and adolescents who have experienced maltreatment. This study highlights the benefits of music in child welfare practice and the potential for meaningful collaborative relationships between child welfare providers and music therapists, which will in turn improve the outcomes of children and families in the child welfare system.
