Musicoterapia in onco-ematologia pediatrica. Metodologia di lavoro e valutazione dei risultati

Lorenzo Capolsini, Mariolina Rossi

editore: Cittadella

All'interno di un reparto di pediatria oncologica si genera una realtà complessa, carica di esperienze forti legate allo sviluppo della malattia e, ancor più, all'età del paziente. Con rigore metodologico, in questi quattro anni ci siamo chiesti: come si può lavorare con la musicoterapia in un processo di cura caratterizzato da tante criticità? E quale metodo è opportuno seguire in questo contesto? Presto ci siamo resi conto che l'incertezza del decorso clinico arrivava a mettere a dura prova la stabilità emotiva anche di noi musicoterapisti e degli altri operatori e condizionava perfino la possibilità di un percorso/progetto terapeutico. Tutto ci portava inevitabilmente a riflettere non solo sulla validità della metodologia ma anche sulle risposte esistenziali da dare quando ci si interroga sul significato della vita in situazioni così delicate ed estreme.
