Abstract

Unfortunately, ethical dilemmas occur in the music therapy profession. While the topic has received some overall attention in the research literature, a gap exists surrounding this topic. It is currently unknown what ethical dilemmas that board certified music therapists in the United States have experienced. It is also unknown if these dilemmas were resolved; and, if so, how that resolution was perceived by the music therapist. It is unknown what ethical dilemmas have arisen in music therapy education settings.
