Description

This lecture will cover two key approaches for treating mental health issues. First, Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT), an evidence-based treatment for clients, especially those with borderline personality disorder, will be discussed, focusing on how it helps clients understand their own and others' thoughts and feelings. Clinicians will learn how to implement MBT in individual and group settings. Second, the presentation will introduce a new, evidence-supported TMS protocol—fMRI-guided accelerated prolonged iTBS—designed to treat treatment-resistant depression and suicide, offering high success rates and new hope for those struggling with these conditions.
