About Mentalizing Initiative
Providing Clinical Training to Improve Patient Care
The Mentalizing Initiative is the first and only organization providing training and education in Mentalization Based Therapies on the West Coast. Since its inception, the MI has trained over 1000 practitioners in Mentalization Based Therapy across the world.
Our Story
The Mentalizing Initiative began in 2006 as UCLA's Borderline Personality Disorder Initiative and was the first Mentalization Based Treatment program in the U.S. In 2018, the MI was established as a non-profit organization and remains the only MBT training program on the West Coast.
Our Impact
We have trained over 1000 clinicians across the world in various settings. We raise and provide funds to finance free training for clinical teams in community mental health settings.
What We Offer
In an effort to increase access to effective, high-quality care, the Mentalizing Initiative offers training and educational seminars to both community and mental health professionals in evidenced based treatments shown to increase reflective function and the capacity for mentalization.
Our Team
The MI's team consists of clinicians from varying backgrounds who have been practicing, supervising, and teaching MBT for 15 years. As the first clinical team in the U.S. trained by MBT creators Peter Fonagy and Anthony Bateman, we are honored to serve as the Los Angeles training hub for mentalization based therapy.
