Music can be used with teachers to help promote their mental health and avoid burnout. For instance, Cheek et al. (2003) found that elementary teachers who participated in school-based counseling groups that used music therapy techniques in conjunction with cognitive behavioral interventions reported lower levels of burnout symptoms than teachers in school-based counseling groups that used cognitive be havioral interventions only. Forensic psychiatric patients may also benefit from cognitive behavioral music therapy, such as the song “Everything Changes” by Staind, as part of the multimodal treatment they receive. In music therapy sessions, music therapists deploy music in specific ways to elicit the reinforcement of appropriate behaviors in clients and help them experiment with new behaviors, adjusting incorrect thoughts, relaxation, and role playing. In other words, musical situations are created to stimulate patients to modify their behavior (Hakvoort & Bogaerts, 2013).
