Abstract

Depression is a frequent mood disorder that requires a consensual therapeutic arsenal combining psychotropic drugs and psychotherapies. When depression requires hospitalization, particularly in the context of a major depressive disorder, having an integrative tool that induces a state of relaxation, positive mood and anticipation within twenty minutes is useful for patients and care teams. The Receptive Projective Composite Montage is a standardized music therapy device with evaluated effectiveness that can fulfill this role.
