Desensitisation to risk can lead to clinical complacency! Something to reflect upon from @danwarrender.bsky.social

Unless professionals are willing to mentalize and understand the perspectives of people with PD and trauma experiences, treatment will not be effective #BIGSPD25

Mentalizing involves: I mode - how we understand ourselves and others. Me mode - When understand how others see us. We mode - Coming together and a shared understanding, which leads to co-mentalizing. Essential for effective communication. #BIGSPD25

Putting a dog in a slide definitely gets my attention. But did you know dogs are good at mentalizing humans? Other dogs. . . Not so much! #BIGSPD25

Starting the 2nd day off strong with @pfonagy.bsky.social recognising the stigma of the label of “personality disorder” and not being a fan of this term. #BIGSPD25

Dr Dennis talking about the work of M. Fakhry Davids on internal racism. Explaining that we all have this part and the way to bring about change is the socialisation with “others”. Whatever others mean to you and encouraging us to reflect on what comes up for us when thinking about this 🤯 #BIGSPD25

Let’s talk about the global majority not “ethnic minority”. Thank you Maxine Dennis for opening your talk with this premise! #BIGSPD25

Some of the take home points from: @mickmckeown24.bsky.social - We can claw ourselves out of the pits of despair to hope. - It’s communication that changes the world. - We need to do risk assessments as humans not robots. - If we aren’t alarmed by something we are complicit. #BIGSPD25
