what is Mentalizing Together?
Mentalizing Together is a twice-monthly virtual series for anyone interested in exploring and applying the principles of mentalizing. Whether you're new to the concept or have years of clinical experience, this is a space to connect with others who share an interest in understanding minds; our own and each other's.
Each month we explore one theme in two sessions:
-
First session: An interactive talk introducing the theme, followed by open discussion.
-
Second session: A clinical application of that same theme, using case material, role plays, and shared problem-solving.
This is a place where ideas deepen through shared reflection and real connection.
why join?
Be part of a community of clinicians, students, researchers and curious thinkers.
Deepen your understanding and learn from experienced MBT clinicians and mentalizing experts.
Stay connected between trainings and events, with content that feels alive and relevant.
