Description
Mentalizing in Psychodynamic and Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy explains how mentalization-based therapy (MBT) can be used within the framework of depth psychology and analytical psychotherapies. This book assesses the essential conceptual innovations of mentalizing, focusing on outpatient individual therapies for patients with personality disorders. The authors provide a practical and research-oriented work, documenting numerous case studies and detailed transcripts of treatment dialogs supplemented by extensive commentary to illustrate the practical application of mentalizing. Mentalizing in Psychodynamic and Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy is a valuable resource for psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists looking to integrate mentalizing into their work. By exploring the high connectivity of mentalizing to psychoanalysis, this book offers insights into the further development of the concept of mentalizing.
