A Definition of Mentalizing• The imaginative activity of making sense of behaviour
• Of self and of others• By reference to present intentional mental states
• Beliefs, Desires, Fears, Hopes…
A ‘bedrock’ neurodevelopmental capacity that is:
• Located primarily in the prefrontal cortex
• Fostered (or rekindled) in the experience of relationship with a trusted other, in which one has repeated experience of being accurately mentalized (“I find my mind in your mind”)
• Easily overwhelmed by powerful stress/arousal/attachment

Mentalizing = Holding the Right Balance

Just enough Psychic
Equivalence
so that true feeling
is communicated
Just enough Teleology
so that things
get done Just enough Pretend,
so that new ideas arise
about other minds.

Adolescent substance use, offending, school refusal, violence, educational
failure......are often just flagssignalling multiple
synergisticvulnerabilities
Psychiatric comorbidities are more commonly present than absent in substance using youth (Kessler and Walters, 1998 ).

Tower of Babel
Multidisciplinary, Multi-agency input:each worker offers,implicitly or explicitly,his or her explicatoryframework…
Different tongues
“I, as a fragmented adolescent, and my fragmented family,
have to integrate what you lothave failed to integrate for 100 years...”

Dis-integrationDis-integration can be explained as the failure of different constituent
parts of a network accurately to mentalize each other
It is COMMON, and requires not SHAME, but thought and contingency planning
![Page 34: AMBIT: Working in anxious places...AMBIT: Working in anxious places A team-based mentalizing approach to high risk hard to reach complex youth 1 Fundación Castilla del Pino 2013 Dr](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071603/613dfe6f59df642846163ef1/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
3 levels of Dis-integration
1. Explanation What’s the problem? Why? 2. Intervention What to do? What could help?4. Responsibility Who does what?
