Abstract

Musictherapy is a discipline with an important background that has demonstrated its substantial benefits for people with multiple different personal profiles. Humans at all stages of life, with functional diversity, health, cognitive, or emotional problems, can benefit from musictherapy. Adolescence is a convulse stage in human development, and musictherapy can be an invaluable source of support so adolescents can develop in a positive way. Flow is, according to Csikszentmihalyi (2012), an altered state of mind in which a person feels highly engaged in an inherently gratifying activity, producing high satisfaction and therapeutic outcomes. In the present research work, interactions between flow (Csikszentmihalyi, 2012) and humanistic musictherapy are explored through a case-study with one adolescent in a school context.
