3 Community Service Related to Professional Work: ( ) Board of Directors, Tewksbury State, Tewksbury MA. PART II: Research, Teaching, and Clinical Contributions A. Narrative report of Research, Teaching, and Clinical Contributions Clinical I arrived at McLean in September 1979 to begin a two- year clinical postdoctoral fellowship in Adolescent Clinical Psychology. Previous to coming to Mclean I had had a wide variety of experiences working with adolescents in hospital, day hospital and outpatient clinics. However, I had never, until that point, had the opportunity to begin to work with such a group of sophisticated clinicians who were trying to understand adolescent character pathology and to craft treatment milieus that would support recovery. My two fellowship years were divided between the Adolescent Day Service and The Adolescent and Family Treatment Center. In my first year I had the opportunity to work in an open day program that treated both character disordered adolescents and a smaller group of psychotic teenagers. The Adolescent Day Service was an open program with only moderate capacities to restrict and contain high action behavior. Our clinical tools primarily depended on our clinical relationship to each patient in the program. Staff worked together in as transparent a way as possible with the teens witnessing staff harmony as well as how we managed disagreements. My time at ADS was instrumental in helping formulate the ways in which I believe an adolescent milieu can be a real agent for change in psychiatrically compromised teenagers. I spent the second post-doctoral year at the Adolescent and Family Treatment Unit (AFTU). AFTU was an unlocked residential program for adolescents with emerging character problems. Parents of these children were required to be part of the program. It was from these parents that I began to understand the worry, anger, sadness and hope that were central aspects of the parent s experience. While I no longer subscribe to the psychodynamic explanation for character pathology that informed our work on the unit, the careful thinking about clinical task and roles and how authority was managed in clinical settings became invaluable to me when I assumed leadership. In the early 1990 s with managed care becoming evermore a presence in the delivery of mental health services several colleagues and I were given the opportunity to start a small day hospital for adolescents. The formation of the day hospital occurred just as child services in the hospital were being reorganized. Our

4 day hospital became part of the Adolescent Acute Day and Residential Program. From 1992 until 1998 I served as Director of the ART. In January of 1998 I moved to Two Brattle Center in Harvard Square to begin aiding in the development of effective Intensive Out Patient Programs. Before the center closed I had helped to create a dynamically oriented IOP and an Intensive DBT program for adults and one for teenagers. During my eight years at Two Brattle Center I maintained a connection to McLean. I co-led a milieu seminar for child trainees and staff and did teaching consultations for staff and trainees. I continue both of these commitments. In 2007 I was asked to share the lead in the development of a residential, self -pay DBT program for adolescents. 3East, as it has become to be known, initially was an 8-bed unit. As of 2011 we have the original 8 beds plus 5 step-down beds. We have a DBT day hospital that serves teenagers and parents from the community as well as the occasional family that temporarily relocates in the area. 3East at Mill Street Lodge is a 5-bed group home for girls stepping down from the residential unit and who are attending the Arlington School on campus. Currently my role at 3East is to oversee all training of staff and students, in addition, I am the program director of the 3East Day. Also I am responsible for admissions in the Day and take the lead in all residential admissions meetings. Teaching: Over the last 25 years I have been actively involved in supervising Psychiatric Residents, Child Fellows and advanced psychology trainees. In 1996 I was honored as teacher of the year for the MGH/McLean child psychiatry fellowship program. I have co-led a milieu seminar for trainees who are rotating through McLean s Acute Residential Treatment Program for well over fifteen years. In addition I conduct a bi-monthly teaching conference in which I am observed consulting to an adolescent and their parent s. This teaching conference has met regularly for the last fifteen years and is an important aspect of the Child Fellows curriculum while at McLean. Two years ago I begin to teach a yearlong seminar in Dialectical Behavior Therapy which is open to all members of the McLean Community. Last year over forty staff and trainees elected to participate in this course. In the academic year I will continue to teach the year- long DBT course and will co lead a seminar that examines clinical interventions from a mentalization based perspective and a DBT perspective. In addition I am a regular presenter at McLean s Borderline Case Conference that is chaired by John Gunderson, MD. In my role as Director of Training at The 3East Continuum of Care it is my responsibility to assure that all staff are adhering to the principles and protocols of DBT. In addition, I have developed a training program that regularly attracts graduate students from Harvard s Clinical Psychology Program, Post-doctoral

5 Fellows from Dr. Zanarini s lab and psychiatric residents. This year I was honored to have a donor fund a post-doctoral position at 3East in connection with my clinical work with a family member. In addition as a trainer for Behavioraltech I have conducted DBT trainings for mental health professionals across the nation and in Australia. I have also been involved in three DBT program implementation projects. I have been part of a statewide initiative to train and provide consultation to child programs in Connecticut. In California I helped a private program expand to treating Borderline patients in a DBT residential program. I helped implement and train staff at the Germain Lawrence Residential Treatment Center in Arlington MA. This was a three year project that included training in DBT and consultations about program development.

Research: My career at McLean has largely been in direct service, program development, clinical leadership, and teaching. It has only been in the last few years that I have had the opportunity to be a part of clinical research. I have collaborated with Professor Mathew Nock at Harvard s Clinical Psychology Program in research studies examining the function of Non-suicidal Self Injury in adolescents. While at Two Brattle Center I had the opportunity to collaborate on a study with Karlin Lyons-Ruth and her group at Cambridge Health Alliance. In the past year 3East has partnered with Professor Mary Zanarini s research group in a study examining the efficacy of our treatment. Publications: 1. Nock, M.K., Teper, T. l., & Hollander, M.
