Mentalizing Based Treatment with Children (MBT-C) is a model for working with children in the latency years (ages 4-12) and their parents. MBT-C is a psychoanalytic integrative approach that combines psychodynamic principles with findings from attachment and affect regulation theory, systemic family therapy and empirical research. MBT-C is transdiagnostic and suitable for addressing a range of problems, including emotional and behavioral problems, anxiety, trauma, depression and attachment problems.

MBT-C and Trauma focuses on children who have had long-term exposure to relational trauma such as physical abuse, sexual abuse, domestic violence and emotional neglect, sometimes in conjunction with adoption or placement in foster care.
