Mentalization-Based Treatment: Practitioner Level

This workshop is suitable for mental health and other professionals who are interested in the treatment of personality disorders and have already completed the 3-day Basic MBT Training. Participants are expected to have been using mentalizing skills in their everyday practice and, when possible, to have participated in supervision.

This two-day workshop will expand on previous knowledge and embed the basic skills of MBT. Participants learn how to use the MBT adherence scale for individual therapy and hone their MBT skills through clinical demonstration, video ratings, and role plays. Using video, participants demonstrate their use of basic interventions within a standardized scenario with an actor. This may be used towards recognition of competence and access to supervision to become a supervisor.
