About the Book The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook broke new ground in self-help resources when it was released more than 10 years ago, offering readers unprecedented access to the core skills of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Now fully revised and updated, this second edition continues to offer straightforward, step-by-step exercises that will bring core DBT skills to thousands who need it. Book Synopsis A clear and effective approach to learning evidence-based DBT skills--now in a fully revised and updated second edition.Do you have trouble managing your emotions? First developed by Marsha M. Linehan for treating borderline personality disorder, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) has proven effective as treatment for a range of other mental health problems, and can greatly improve your ability to handle distress without losing control and acting destructively. However, to make use of these techniques, you need to build skills in four key areas: distress tolerance, mindfulness, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook, a collaborative effort from three esteemed authors, offers evidence-based, step-by-step exercises for learning these concepts and putting them to work for real and lasting change. Start by working on the introductory exercises and, after making progress, move on to the advanced-skills chapters. Whether you're a mental health professional or a general reader, you'll benefit from this clear and practical guide to better managing your emotions.This fully revised and updated second edition also includes new chapters on cognitive rehearsal, distress tolerance, and self-compassion. Once you've completed the exercises in this book and are ready to move on to the next level, check out the authors' new book, The New Happiness Workbook.

In this book, you will find just that! Even after using, teaching, researching, and writing about DBT concepts for more than a decade, I now have a richer understanding of DBT that I am excited to try on myself...and share with others!" --Kirby Reutter, PhD, bilingual clinical psychologist with the Department of Homeland Security, and author of The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook for PTSD--Kirby Reutter, PhD "Building on their original best seller, McKay, Wood, and Brantley have incorporated recent research and new developments in DBT into the second edition of The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook. The result is a comprehensive, user-friendly guide to DBT skills, chock-full of exercises that will help clients learn the skills that will help in their struggle with overwhelming emotions, and that will also make DBT more accessible to clinicians." --Sheri Van Dijk, MSW, psychotherapist, international speaker, and author of several DBT books, including Don't Let Your Emotions Run Your Life for Teens--Sheri Van Dijk, MSW "For people who struggle with intense, painful emotions, this workbook is a great resource.

Koons, LCSW "Knowing how to effectively regulate emotions is not something we are born with. This updated manual provides a road map and step-by-step instructions for enhancing emotional well-being. It is easy to read and easy to use--with new techniques focusing on increasing compassion towards the self and others, and novel strategies for dealing with intense emotions. Highly recommended for anyone struggling with regulating emotions or interested in improving their emotional intelligence." --Thomas R. Lynch, PhD, FBPsS, emeritus professor in the school of psychology at University of Southampton, United Kingdom; and author of Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy and The Skills Training Manual for Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy--Thomas R. Lynch, PhD, FBPsS "McKay and colleagues have revolutionized DBT by replacing traditional skills training with this quintessential compendium of state-of-the-art strategies for effective coping and valued living. The authors have brilliantly distilled decades of research into refreshingly clear constructs that help individuals understand and overcome suffering, and improve their cognitive, behavioral, and socio-emotional functioning. Relatable examples and user-friendly worksheets facilitate readers' learning and their ability to utilize skills across a broad range of everyday problems. Whether you are a consumer seeking expert help, or a clinician wanting to improve your ability to better serve clients, this is a must-have resource for any library." --Rochelle I. Frank, PhD, assistant clinical professor in the department of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley; adjunct professor at The Wright Institute; and coauthor of The Transdiagnostic Road Map to Case Formulation and Treatment Planning--Rochelle I. Frank, PhD "The authors have produced yet another example of accessible and clear instructions for those coping with overwhelming emotions like guilt, anger, shame, and anxiety. The acronyms used are simple and easy to remember. The many examples and exercises in the book assist the reader to do the work that DBT demands. While staying true to the DBT model, the authors go beyond Linehan to synthesize adaptations of research and clinical instruments useful for both home and clinic. I was particularly impressed with their inclusion of exposure-based cognitive rehearsal, so the user deals with intense emotions in the moment." --Thomas Marra, PhD, author of Depressed and Anxious, Dialectical Behavior Therapy in Private Practice, and the forthcoming The Path of Wisdom on Emotion Regulation--Thomas Marra, PhD "The individual struggling with overwhelming emotions, as wells as DBT therapists, will benefit significantly from this workbook. McKay, Wood, and Brantley have expanded and translated DBT skills, making Linehan's iconic work on emotional skill building even more accessible and easy to apply to everyday life." --Kate Northcott, MA, MFT, DBT therapist in private practice with Mindfulness Therapy Associates; and director of New Perspectives Center for Counseling, a nonprofit counseling center in San Francisco, CA--Kate Northcott, MA, MFT "This book has taken DBT skills, and provided a comprehensive framework to guide a client from first introduction to DBT through the development of a deeper proficiency in skill use. The additional focus on self-compassion and exposure-based cognitive rehearsal is vital to bridging the gap between learning new behaviors and using them when they truly matter--during times of emotional arousal and when it's a struggle to cope. I would highly recommend this book to clinicians and readers who want to build a rich array of strategies to survive painful emotions and live fully in everyday life." --Christy Matta, MA, health manager at Stanford's Health Improvement Program, and author of The Stress Response--Christy Matta, MA About the Author Matthew McKay, PhD, is a professor at the Wright Institute in Berkeley, CA.
