Mentalizing is all about how we navigate our social worlds and relationships, how we think about thinking, and how we understand ourselves and those around us… and it can be tough for trauma survivors. In this third episode, Dr Heath MacIntosh is joined by Joe and Estelle, who share the challenges they’ve found in not letting assumptions cloud their responses to each other. 

Dr. MacIntosh's workbook for trauma survivor couples is published by Routledge Press and can be purchased at Amazon.ca or you can get in touch at [email protected]. Access the manual for therapists here.
