Mentalization-Based Therapy

Up to 21 individual MBT-A sessions plus 9 monthly family sessions. MBT-A sessions will focus on the adolescent's recent social experiences and the resulting mental states and managing interpersonal challenges, particularly those involving separation or loss. The goal of this intervention is to improve the adolescent's ability to mentalize: to understand, acknowledge, and predict thoughts and feelings in oneself and others.
