Objectives: This study examined how song psychotherapy can prompt motivation for change among adults with alcohol abuse. Methods: Four male alcohol-dependent patients from a hospital in G province participated in a weekly song psychotherapy program for six weeks. Each session was 60 minutes long. All participants took the pre- and post-test using SOCRATES-K. The program, composed of psychotherapeutic music interventions ranging from passive listening to active song making, aimed to prompt and enhance motivation for treatment of substance-dependency issues. Results: All participants showed increased progress scores in each stage of the program. On average, their recognition score increased by 22.5, the taking steps score increased by 25, and the ambivalence score changed depending on individual needs. In addition, qualitative content analysis of the participants’ verbal and lyrical responses demonstrated their eagerness and motivated attitude toward overcoming their substance-dependent behaviors. Conclusion: The results demonstrated that using song materials as a psychotherapeutic medium can facilitate heightened awareness and attitudes toward perceptions of collaboration, evocation, and autonomy, which are core elements in motivating treatment of substance-dependency issues.
