Abstract

The following intervention proposal in Music Therapy is aimed at parents or caregivers of babies admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Its objective is to offer them a framework of containment in the face of the traumatic event experienced, favor their psychological well-being and consequently strengthen the bond with the newborn. This multimodal intervention is a complementary support to the RBL method used at the NICU, includes also a group intervention with the GIM method and the creation of a new environmental music model called Birthing Harp. It is an easy-to- implement intervention and a valuable contribution to the humanization of the hospital system.
