SUMMARY:Psychology Online Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Title: Making Sense of Minds and Relationships: The Social Cognitive Roots of Vulnerability\, Well-being\, and Therapeutic Change \nAbstract: How do we make sense of our own minds and decipher the intentions and emotions of others? What makes some relationships nurturing and others fraught with misunderstanding or pain? At the heart of my research lies a fascination with how relational experiences and social cognition shape vulnerability\, resilience\, and well-being across the lifespan. From early investigations into the psychosocial roots of criminal behaviour to studying relational patterns\, cognitive styles\, and dissociative disorders in women\, my academic journey has woven these themes together. My doctoral work deepened these questions by exploring attachment\, mentalization\, borderline personality features\, and interpersonal competence among young adults. Extending this work into mental health interventions\, my current project examines how culturally shaped markers signal relational ruptures in psychotherapy. Together\, these lines of inquiry reveal the powerful ways our relational worlds influence growth\, distress\, and the process of therapeutic change. \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Mehak Sikand is an Assistant Professor at the Jindal School of Psychology and Counselling and Co-Director of Aagahii\, the Centre for Psychotherapy Research and Training at O.P. Jindal Global University\, India. A licensed clinical psychologist (Rehabilitation Council of India)\, she holds an MPhil from Dr. RML Hospital\, Delhi\, and a PhD from the National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences (NIMHANS)\, Bangalore. She has also completed the Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT) Advanced Practitioner Course\, accredited by the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families\, UK. Passionate about the psychotherapy process\, research\, training\, and supervision\, she actively fosters peer learning\, mentorship\, and reflective practice. Dedicated to advancing ethical and accessible mental health care\, she strives to support trainees and early-career professionals while enhancing the overall quality of mental health services.  \nWe look forward to your active participation.
