Product Description
Review
'Marsha Linehan's tremendously in-depth and informative book and its companion skills-training manual offer a needed guide to the cognitive-behavioral treatment of borderline personality disorder... Her method has become so widely used by clinicians that the experts in psychosocial treatments consider it one of the best... Marsha Linehan's methods are highly eclectic because they are empirically based; they have been fashioned to fit what works best for borderline patients.' - Lester Luborsky, PhD

Format:Paperback
I am diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder and this manual has been a lifesaver. It cuts through a lot of 'psychobabble', goes beyond theory and gives direct, practical techniques that teach how to identify and appropriately express emotions. I would recommend the exercises in this workbook for *anyone* with problems feeling or expressing emotions.

I was a teenager when i was diagnosed with BPD in the uk. I was treated 1:1, group and with DBT from this very manual. I have had many relapases but always fall back to the skils i was taught with this book, now i've bought i can re-fresh ALL the skills. This book is easy to read, but putting the skills in to practice can take time. But when it's there the skills will never leave you! All the Best, Enjoy!

Format:Paperback
I suffer from borderline personality disorder, and the content of this book has been a great help when dealing with my emotional disability. I love this book because it focuses on "treating" the disorder, whereas other books' focuses are often the cause of the disorder or pathology of it. The positive attitude of facing the real issues of those who suffer from borderline personality disorder is encouraging. I can see the author's deep understanding of the disorder, and I appreciate her efforts to explain what the probrems really are and how to deal with them.

Comprehensive
Very detailed, comprehensive, and useful.
A few bits are hard to follow, and need to be adapted for outside the USA.

Useful handbook
This book has proved to be all that my psychiatrist and psychologist colleagues had led me to believe. In particular the handout homework pages are clear and well thought out.
