Bilingual Music & Therapy

衷心感謝 Sunny Wong 今晚為我哋一班廣東話臨床工作者，分享有關 廣東話治療性歌曲創作（Cantonese Therapeutic Songwriting） 嘅研究同臨床經驗。今次分享亦係我哋每月一次 雙語註冊音樂治療師（Bilingual RMT）同儕督導小組 嘅一部分。

「好高興可以同大家分享我嘅研究同臨床實踐經驗，希望今次分享可以開啟更多關於廣東話，以及廣東話治療性歌曲創作獨特性嘅討論。」
—— Sunny Wong

廣東話係一種非常獨特、豐富，而且充滿表達力嘅語言。我哋亦知道，能夠用案主嘅母語去幫助佢哋溝通、表達自己，以及整理生命經歷，喺臨床上可以帶嚟非常深遠嘅治療效益。
正如 Sunny 所講，今晚只係一個開始。

我哋希望今次工作坊可以支持已經喺臨床工作中運用廣東話治療性歌曲創作嘅治療師，鼓勵一直有興趣但未開始嘗試嘅同工踏出第一步，亦希望啟發更多治療師探索呢項極具價值嘅臨床技巧。
如果大家對廣東話治療性歌曲創作喺臨床或治療工作上有任何問題，歡迎直接聯絡 Sunny，一齊交流討論！

期待未來有更多關於廣東話嘅交流、合作，同埋創作更多屬於我哋嘅治療性歌曲。🎵❤️

A heartfelt thank you to Sunny Wong for generously sharing his expertise with a group of Cantonese-speaking clinicians tonight on Cantonese Therapeutic Songwriting as part of our monthly Bilingual RMT Peer Supervision Group.

”So glad to share my research and practice insights with you all. I hope it starts more conversations about the uniqueness of Cantonese and Cantonese therapeutic songwriting in our profession.“
— Sunny Wong

Cantonese is a unique, rich and expressive language. We also know that supporting clients to communicate, express themselves, and process their experiences in their mother tongue can have profound clinical benefits.
As Sunny said, this is only the beginning.

We hope tonight‘s workshop will support clinicians who are already incorporating Cantonese therapeutic songwriting into their practice, encourage those who have been hesitant to give it a try, and inspire even more therapists to explore this valuable clinical skill.

If you have any questions about Cantonese therapeutic songwriting in a clinical or therapeutic context, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Sunny.
Here‘s to many more conversations, collaborations, and songs in Cantonese. 🎵❤️

嬰幼兒心理健康（Infant Mental Health）是一個經常被忽略、亦較少被討論的議題，但它卻非常重要。💛

非常感謝 La Therapy 在「嬰幼兒心理健康關注週（Infant Mental Health Awareness Week）」期間分享相關資訊，提醒我們：心理健康其實從生命最初的階段就已經開始建立。

嬰幼兒在成長早期所經歷的人際關係、生活環境，以及與照顧者之間的互動，對他們的情緒健康、依附關係和整體發展都有深遠的影響。

敬請期待—— Bilingual Music & Therapy 很快將會為社區帶來一個令人期待的新項目！🎵👶 我們非常期待與大家分享，一同支持孩子和家庭的心理健康成長。💕

Infant mental health is an often overlooked and under-discussed topic, yet it is so incredibly important. 💛

A big thank you to La Therapy⁠ for shining a light on this during Infant Mental Health Awareness Week and reminding us that mental health begins from the very start of life.

The experiences, relationships, and environments that babies are exposed to in their earliest years can have a profound impact on their emotional wellbeing and development.

Stay tuned — Bilingual Music & Therapy has something exciting to offer our community very soon, and we can’t wait to share it with you. 🎵👶
