Short term mentalization-based treatment for adolescents (MBT-A)

The general framework of intervention corresponds to the Mentalization-Based Treatment model for adolescents (MBT-A). In this study, the model was adapted to a brief, time-limited format (12 sessions) aimed at both the adolescent and their family. The model retains the main characteristics of Mentalization-Based Therapy, such as the therapist's basic attitude toward actively promoting patients' mentalization, uncertainty of mental states, focus on the here and now, and the use of affect as a mechanism for change.
