[Receptive individual music therapy in the concept of ambulatory psychotherapy]

Practical experience regarding the application of receptive individual music therapy after Schwabe is used as a basis to discuss its use at outpatient surgeries. The method is used for patient-centred psychodynamic counselling of neurotics and can, because it permits particularly an emotional access to the patient, accelerate the treatment. The author discusses the treatment itself, its indicants, the training of therapeutics, questions of medical competence and the constraints limiting its application for outpatient treatment.
