Is MBT right for me?
What MBT can help with
MBT can help people understand their own thoughts and feelings, recognise what may be happening in other people’s minds, and respond more thoughtfully in relationships.
It may be useful when difficulties involve intense emotions, misunderstandings, impulsive reactions, unstable relationships, significant life changes, work issues linked to personal relationships, depression, or anxiety.
What MBT cannot do
MBT cannot remove every problem, guarantee a particular outcome, replace urgent or specialist support, or provide medication advice or prescriptions.
If another type of care is needed, this should be discussed with an appropriate healthcare professional.
Your therapist
What can you expect from therapy?
Dr Matthew Angell is an accredited UK therapist who specialises in Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT). He completed his training at the Anna Freud Centre in London and is listed as an accredited MBT practitioner on the British Psychoanalytic Council website. Prior to this he worked as an MBT supervisor.
Although he trained as a medical doctor and later specialised in psychiatry, he does not offer medication advice or provide private prescriptions.
What experience does he have?
During his career, he established a successful inpatient MBT programme that met clients’ therapy needs effectively. The hospital was rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), the regulator responsible for overseeing hospital-based care. As Head of Therapies, alongside other roles, he managed an active caseload and provided staff training and supervision.
He developed and delivered the service for 10 years at a private mental health hospital, which was later sold.
What current experience does he have?
Following the sale, he returned to the NHS for four years in a similar role. Although he did not provide regular one-to-one sessions to patients, he used the same MBT approach in his interactions with them. This helped him build effective therapeutic relationships, which are among the strongest predictors of positive change.
He currently works with an MBT supervisor in the charity sector and completes additional training when appropriate.
