From the Inside Out: The 2nd International Conference on Mentalization-based Interventions for Children, Young People and Families

This one-day conference will present some of the most exciting new developments in mentalization-based interventions with children, young people and families. The day will begin with an overview of the latest developmental and neuroscientific research regarding the theory of mentalization. The rest of the day will present creative models of clinical practice including work with parents and infants, children in care, schools and outreach services.

Who is this conference suitable for?

Clinicians and those working in child and youth services, academics and students interested in mentalization-based approaches to working with children, young people and families with a range of psychological difficulties.

Aims of conference

The conference builds on the success of the first international conference held in 2010. It will serve both as an introduction for those new to mentalization-based interventions for children and young people, but also as a follow-up for those who attended the first conference, highlighting the most exciting new international developments over the last two years.

Brunei Gallery

The conference will take place at Brunei Gallery, SOAS, Thornhaugh Street, Russell Square, London WC1H 0XG
