Introducing the AMBIT team experts
AMBIT (Adaptive Mentalization Based Integrative Treatment) is a mentalization-based approach to working with high risk hard to reach clients whose needs tend to be complex, and who may not seek help in conventional ways. It is developed by the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families, and is comprised of a team of experts and a large and growing community of practice whose feedback continues to support the development of the model of practice.
