Product Description

Review

'Linehan is a brilliant, compassionate, and rigorous therapist for borderline patients. What's more, and what is most unusual for master therapists, she has proven its efficacy in published randomized, controlled trials. What is fortuitous for borderline patients and their therapists is that she has painstakingly crafted a wise book and user-friendly manual well grounded in principle, detailed in its strategies, and exportable to a wide range of treatment settings... Linehan has set a high standard of treatment for borderlines in the 1990s; the patients will be the ultimate beneficiaries.' - Charles R. Swenson, MD, New York Hospital, Westchester Division, USA



Product Description

In this work, Marsha M. Linehan not only provides specific guidelines that creatively combine the best elements of behavioral, personality, psychoanalytic, strategic and other commonly employed modalities, but helps the therapist survive the process.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent text for anyone dealing with BPD, 16 Jan 1998
By A Customer
This book lays out a reasonable and realistic plan for confronting and managing the various problems faced by someone suffering from BPD. A must read for patients, therapists and supportive friends or family.

5.0 out of 5 stars Also good for family members, 26 Sep 1997
By A Customer
While this book is primarily for therapists treating this disorder, it can also be very educational for and quite comforting to family members of people with this disorder. People with BPD can be incredibly upsetting to family members, and not being able to understand why someone is like this can be very frustrating. To read a very detailed explanation of the disorder can be an incredible relief. While the writing style is laced with Psychological jargon (as it should be) a layperson can still understand most all of the concepts in the book. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A necessary book for a person who is caring for a BPD person, 17 April 1999
By A Customer
This book provides an invaluable resource for a person who is trying to understand a person with BPD,or get help for them. Linehan's method has undergone randomized clinical trials and demonstrated its worth. Nevertheless,it is quite common for therapists to insist they can treat BPD with other methods. Stick with Linehan's Dialectical Behavior Therapy(DBT). The book will arm you well to deal with both therapists,and patient(or yourself if you are the patient.) Accept no substitutes.
