MBT Advanced practitioner and supervisor training

This two-day workshop expands on previous knowledge and builds upon the skills of  mentalization based treatment (MBT) learned during the basic training. 

The  course includes: 

• Lectures on current developments in MBT 
• Working with trauma in MBT 
• How to use the MBT adherence scale as part of the interactional and recursive aspect of mentalizing and as part of self-appraisal of adherence to MBT. (separate module for those eligible for supervisor training)
•  Higher skill development of interventions relevant to individual and group MBT  therapy using clinical demonstration, video ratings, and role plays. 

During the course participants are asked to present clinical dilemmas that they have met  during their clinical work. These are discussed and used as examples to finesse MBT  interventions which are then illustrated through role plays. When possible some participants  will bring video material of their current clinical work. 

Course outcomes: 

• Course participants will enhance their skills to treat patients using MBT 
• Introduce the adherence scale for rating treatment sessions 
•  Benchmark skills required to deliver MBT at a practitioner certification level
