AFHOLDT “Mentaliseringsbegrebet i psykoterapi” – Nationalt symposium om Mentalisering

Baggrund

I Institut for Mentalisering er vi stolte af – i samarbejde med Folkeuniversitet, at kunne tilbyde en hel dag med den internationale anerkendte forsker og klinikker Carla Sharp.

Carla er Professor og chef for ”Training for the Clinical Psychology doctoral program” på universitet of Houston (se hendes fulde meritter nedenfor).

Overskriften for årets nationale symposium er: ”Mentaliseringsbegrebet i Psykoterapi”. Carla vil tale om mentaliseringsbaseret behandling som ’trans-diagnostisk’ behandlingstilgang ift forskellige tilstande og problematikker, såvel koble mentalisering til de forskellige behandlingsparadigmer der eksisterer, eksempelvis DBT, CBT etc. (’trans-paradigmisk’).

Der vil også være en præsentation der omhandler unge og mentalisering med særligt fokus på den nye måde at operationalisere personlighedsforstyrrelser på i ICD-11, med særligt fokus på selv og identitet.

Slutteligt vil Carla også berøre hvorledes mentalisering kan indlæres med inspiration fra teorien om the Mediational Intervention for Sensitizing Caregivers (MISC; Klein, 1996).

Om Carla sharp

Carla Sharp, PhD is Professor and Director of Training for the Clinical Psychology doctoral program at the University of Houston & Director of the Adolescent Diagnosis Assessment Prevention and Treatment Center and the Developmental Psychopathology Lab.

She holds adjunct positions at University of Texas, Baylor College of Medicine, University College London and the University of the Free State in South Africa.

She has a longstanding interest in social cognition as a cause and correlate of mental disorder across the lifespan with a special focus on youth.

She has published over 320 peer reviewed publications, numerous chapters and books, including Social Cognition and Developmental Psychopathology, Handbook of Borderline Personality Disorder in Children and Adolescents, and Mentalizing in Psychotherapy.

Her research uses Borderline and other personality pathology to study where social-cognitive function goes awry. Recent developments in her work reflect a translational focus to carry through the earlier focus on social cognition to evaluate its function as mechanism of change in personality pathology as well as other attachment-related conditions (orphans).

Her work is influenced by mentalization-based approaches to scaffold interpersonal relationships and interactions between caregivers and youth. She is also currently exploring the metastructure of psychopathology to determine the cross-cutting value of social cognition in alternative models of personality pathology. Her work has been funded by the NICHD, NIAAA, NIMH, the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation and other foundations.

Arrangementet kommer til at foregå på Søndre Campus, Emil Holms Kanal 2-8, 2300 Kbh. S., lokale 23.0.50 (bygning 23, stuen).
