Mentalizing and Mentalization Based Treatment (MBT) Seminars: Seminar 3

About this seminar

If we are mentalizing successfully, we are able to understand what is going on in our own minds and in the minds of other people, and realise how this is affecting the emotions, thoughts, and actions of ourselves and others. This understanding of our own perspectives as well as those of other people leads to more successful interactions and social relationships.

Join us on this series to equip you with further knowledge, understanding and continue your development in mentalizing. Each half day seminar will encompass two topics accompanied by group discussion. We will invite participants to take part in small group work and encourage active participation.
