Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT): Practitioner Level Training is organized by McLean Hospital and will be held from Mar 15 - 16, 2024.
Description:
This two-day workshop expands previous knowledge and embeds the basic skills of mentalization-based treatment (MBT). The current MBT Practitioner course is made up of 2 days of live, instructor-led content (including breaks) and 4 hours of self-guided content. Attendees will be required to do various tasks before, in between, and after the live, instructor-led sessions. These self-paced hours will not be included in the CME credits.
This workshop is suitable for mental health and other professionals who are interested in extending and enhancing what they have already learned and applied from having 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. Participants learn how to use the MBT adherence scale for individual therapy and hone their MBT skills through clinical demonstrations, videos, and role-play. Using video, participants demonstrate their use of basic interventions within a standardized scenario with an actor. This is required to attain MBT practitioner status.
Participants are encouraged to bring a clinical video or audio of their work to demonstrate their use of basic MBT interventions. Consent from the client for part of a session to be shown for training purposes is required.
Alternatively, participants may present a clinical problem with an MBT focus. This will be discussed and role play used to identify the appropriate MBT intervention process.
