Attending the MBT group helped turn my life around. It has made a big difference in that I feel so much more in control of my emotions, and I have found that I cope with problems much better. I used to frequently self-harm and think about suicide all the time. Since attending group, I have completely stopped self-harming (1 year +) and no longer think about suicide. I feel more capable to deal with challenges and can’t thank the team enough for how they have helped me.
I’ve found it helpful building peer relationships in the group and the ability to consistently practice. I liked the rolling nature of the group and learning to be comfortable with change, learning and gaining more from people’s experiences.
The facilitators were all fantastic. They have been so thoughtful, compassionate and non-judgemental and made the group feel like a genuinely safe space. They have the perfect mix of being able to challenge difficult ideas without making people feel judged, allowing us to practice mentalizing in a safe way. Chloe, Eleanor and Zena – thank you 😊
I did not expect the service to actually help, and I am so grateful to be proven wrong. The intensive commitment to recovery felt burdensome at the time but I think the high number of sessions was the key to embedding the skills. I think that the MBT Service is genuinely exceptional compared to other services I have encountered.
