17 Acknowledgments Writing this book has been perhaps the biggest academic challenge in my life to date. It has pushed me to expand my views on practice, shifted my thinking about possibilities, and enabled me to grow and deepen my appreciation for songwriting as a method. It has been an absolute privilege to work on this book over the past four and a half years and I thank Nicola Jones and Eleanor Christie and their team at Palgrave Macmillan for agreeing to publish it. I also want to thank the Australia Research Council for funding my research fellowship (ARC Future Fellowship FT ). Without the ARC s support, I could not imagine undertaking a project of this scale. While I am very close to the contents of this book and have poured my heart and soul into it, what has been communicated in the ensuing pages has unquestionably come about because of the interviews and interactions with 45 experienced clinicians and researchers. As you read the book, their varied perspectives are represented in every chapter. My thanks to all of them for finding space in their busy lives to share their work with me. Many allowed me to visit their workplaces, watch sessions, and share examples of songs. They have all been very generous with their time and I thank them for the privilege of being able to hear (and now represent) their work. I want to acknowledge the intellectual contributions of Michael Viega, Helen Short, and Kimberly Khare, whose approaches and perspectives on songwriting have greatly impacted my thinking. Our numerous dialogues and your sharing of powerful stories have opened me to possibilities and perspectives I was not aware of, and your critical feedback of this entire draft has challenged my thinking; your voices are very much present in this book. My thanks to the three of you for your generosity over the years. A special thanks also to Jinah Kim, Helle Lund, Hanna Hakomaki, Neils Hannibal, Randi Rolvsjord, Brynjulf Stige, Lucy Bolger, Amy Clement-Cortes, and Ken Aigen, who all read early developed models and drafts of the analysis and provided invaluable feedback. I also want to recognize the contributions of my long-term collaborator and friend Jeanette Tamplin. Having worked closely as clinicians and co-researchers for almost 20 years, I hold a great deal of admiration and respect for her work. Her voice and perspectives on songwriting are present in this book. I want to thank Professor Kenneth Bruscia here. I attended his Sear s lecture at the American Music Therapy conference in Atlanta in xvii
18 xviii Acknowledgments 2011 where he mapped out his integral thinking outcome-oriented, experience-oriented, and context-oriented thinking. This keynote address had a profound effect on me. It helped me to find a way to frame the development of the models presented in this book. While not specific to this book, I cannot write an acknowledgment section without paying tribute to my mentors: Denise Grocke, Tony Wigram, Cheryl Dileo, and Barbara Wheeler. You have offered me varied forms of support over the years. If I ever asked for help, you never refused (despite how busy you all were), and have afforded me opportunities I once only dreamed about. I also want to say a special thank you to my friend and colleague Katrina McFerran. We have known each other a long time and share a common lust for life and a sense of who we are in the world. You are a true gem immensely intelligent, strong, passionate, and committed. I truly treasure your friendship, your respect, and your embracing of our differences; through you, I grow. Thank you to both my parents for your years of support and for allowing me the freedom to make my own career decisions, follow my passion, and to love me even when I made a few big mistakes along the way. The life messages you have taught me have made me strong, resilient, and driven. I thank you for bringing music into my life it is the best gift you could have ever given me. Dad, I know you would have loved to read this book, to have held it in your hands. You were always so proud of my achievements. Mum, you are my idol you have taught me all I know about responding and adjusting to what life throws at me. You have shown me that being a woman is a gift not a problem, and that I can be empowered to create a world where my gifts and talents can be utilized and recognized. To Nathan: You have witnessed firsthand my transition from a dynamic and caring clinician to a passionate academic and researcher. You more than anyone else in the world know how important this research has been to me. You not only support me but also encourage me to step outside my comfort zone, take a risk, stretch myself, and grow. You continue to hold true to your marriage vows of allowing me to become who I want to be, to fulfill my dreams and potentials. Thank you for giving me space to write this book, for taking care of our boys so I could travel and collect data, and for pouring me that glass of Pinot Gris when I needed to take a break. I am so fortunate to have you in my life. And to my boys Maximillian and Finnegan: you keep me grounded, remind me that life is about love, relationships, sharing experiences, connecting, and belonging. Your morning cuddles, cheeky I ve been naughty smiles, games of Monopoly, daily reading sessions, and weekend Hobbit or Lord of the Rings movie sessions are a source of meaning and vitality in my life. I love you boys.
