Abstract
The role of mentalizing in relation to borderline personality disorder (BPD) is examined with a view to achieving improved levels of mentalizing in BPD patients as a therapeutic target. The article seeks to explain why mentalizing works as a treatment target for BPD, and suggests that a mentalizing approach to BPD may be at the core of any successful intervention.
