MENTALIZATION BASED THERAPY FOR CHILDREN- TIME LIMITED (MBT-C)
This is a three-day workshop that introduces participants to the theoretical and research foundations of a short term therapeutic intervention with school age children. This course covers an introduction to the concept of mentalizing, and its use in clinical work with children in middle childhood (5-12) and their parents. It will provide an overview of the development of mentalizing in middle childhood, and how it can be assessed; an introduction to a time-limited model of MBT-C; and will give opportunities to practice specific skills for working with children from a mentalizing perspective, as well as the parallel work with parents. Videos and Role plays will be used to illustrate and practice techniques and the overall process this model of psychotherapy proposes.
Learning objectives:
1. Participants will be able to discuss the theoretical basis of MBT-C
2. Participants will be able to carry out an MBT-C session with children following the taught technical guide
3. Participants will be able to analyze and develop a mentalizing profile of parents and children
4. Participants will be able to differentiate between a MBT and a CBT child treatment session and discuss differences in between approaches

Keynote: Division 39 Spring Meeting
Psychoanalysis has its roots in the exploration of early experiences and the listening of the echoes from the past in the context of the here and now. In this context, the developmental perspective is the fundamental and inherently indispensable motor that drives analytic work since its inception. Despite this, psychoanalysis still falls prey to blind spots in the form of adult-centric biases. This presentation explores the longitudinal effects of prejudice against children in society and specifically in the field of psychoanalysis. It explores the value of a more radical developmental approach as understood through the lens of a more inclusive psychoanalysis. This invitation allows a quest towards personal freedom acquired through the experience of a two-person transformative play that is only possible when development is held in mind. Psychoanalysts lose their way when they no longer look and listen for the child. The work becomes an intellectual enterprise without diversity and devoid of genuine mentalizing. When analyst and patient are haunted by the shadow of the dissociated child, they must choose to either put the shadow in the drawer or find their way to Neverland and back. Clinical examples will be presented to illustrate how a contemporary developmental psychoanalytic perspective enriches and widens the scope of practice within and beyond the doors of the consulting room.
