Mentalization-based therapy is a longer-term therapy focused on improving ‘mentalization’ skills. 

These skills involve identifying and understanding what is happening in one’s own mind and the minds of others in order to make sense of emotional reactions, intentions, behaviours and actions and improve relationships, increase capacity to trust, better manage big or overwhelming emotions and difficult behaviours.
