Dialectical Behavior Therapy: Volume 1 - The Clinician's Guidebook Paperback – May 1, 2008

It's an easy read and offers practical help for treating BPD. Of course my client who this was intended for has since wandered away from therapy, but she'll be back and I'm sure there will be many more.

I would recommend this as a good resource for clinicians who are teaching DBT skills. Has very good information and skills building excercises.

I got this book and the companion workbook at the recommendation of my supervisor. It is a slightly different take on DBT that Linahan, and I think it is more accessible.

I was hoping for a more streamlined approach. I think if I spend more time with the book I may find better use out of it, but on the first couple of sittings I have found it difficult to stay engaged with.

Quality as described.

Great book on DBT, part I.

DBT book has wonderful ideas on how to implement in any group or individual session, providing coping skills and management for the therapist.

This is a great book that had a lot of helpful information!

Useful guide to developing competencies and overall knowledge of the practice of DBT
