Self-Directed Dbt Skills: A 3-Month Dbt Workbook to Regulate Intense Emotions and Create Lasting Change with Dialectical Behavior Therapy

by Elliot Weiner and Kiki Fehling

Regulate intense emotions, change problematic behaviors, and build fulfilling relationships with this self-directed DBT skills program.

Created by psychologist Marsha M. Linehan, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based approach for managing difficult emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. In this practical guide and workbook, you will develop skills in four key areas: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. While traditional DBT programs take 6 to 12 months to complete and require weekly individual therapy, weekly group skills training, and regular phone coaching, Self-Directed DBT Skills distills the DBT skills into a 3-month program that anyone can access and implement on their own. Using this roadmap filled with actionable exercises, you'll build a strong foundation for emotional well-being and create lasting change.
