Product Description

Review
This book is successful in presenting an interesting formulation and intervention. (Doody's Notes )

Product Description
Mentalizing - the ability to understand oneself and others by inferring the mental states that lie behind overt behavior - develops during childhood within the context of a secure attachment relationship. It is crucial to self-regulation and constructive, intimate relationships. Failure to retain mentalizing, particularly in the midst of emotional interactions, is a core problem in borderline personality disorder and results in severe emotional fluctuations, impulsivity, and vulnerability to interpersonal and social interactions. Mentalization-based treatment for borderline personality disorder is a 'How to Do It' book outlining a clinically proven treatment for Borderline Personality Disorder. Containing illustrative clinical examples, it details precisely how to develop and implement treatment and is a companion to the highly successful book Psychotherapy for Borderline Personality Disorder - mentalization based treatment. This practical guide explains how to treat borderline patients by helping them develop a more robust mentalizing capacity within the context of an attachment relationship. It provides the practitioner with everything they need to know about how to practise mentalizing treatment in day patient and out-patient settings. Enough theory is provided to orientate the clinician and there is step-by-step practical advice on the assessment of mentalizing and interpersonal relationships, how to structure treatment, the use of basic mentalizing interventions and how to apply them, as well as information on what not to do. In addition, it includes a check list to be used in the assessment of mentalizing and a self-rating exercise for practitioners to evaluate their adherence to mentalizing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mentalization-based Treatment for Borderline Personality Disorder: A Practical Guide, 28 Oct 2006

By	Ms. F. Lemonsky (Whetstone) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

FANTASTIC! THis morning my Amazon order plopped through my door.How Do Anthony Bateman and Peter Fonagy make their work very readable and understandable?
I am biased having had MBT treatment and having moved on in my life yet still stuck in many areas which they do talk about in the practical guide.
Currently I am woking as a service user consultant deivering PD training locally with a generic clinical team who have done the three day MBT training-I have to say that it makes a remarkable difference.
Mentalizing is far from easy but somuch better when you STOP andTHINK, also pushing that pause button and exploring what has happened......
This work is groundbreaking and inspiring.
As a BPD sufferer on a recovery journey I find this book heartwarming too.
BPD IS Treatable and Bateman and Fonagy show you how. The beauty of it is that MBT reaches the parts of you that others may not have reached before. The process of change is painful-MBT makes it a welcome change. FL.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good, 11 Jun 2009

By	Clare Davies "C. Davies" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is very good if you are wanting to learn more about BPD and it's causes. Mentalization based treatment is fairly new but already appears to be more effective than DBT. Even though it is a hand book for clinicians it is a valuable read for anyone wanting to know more about the treatment.
