Marsha M. Linehan, PhD, ABPP, the developer of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), is Professor Emeritus of Psychology and Director Emeritus of the Behavioral Research and Therapy Clinics at the University of Washington. Before retiring in 2019, she devoted her career to developing and evaluating evidence-based treatments for populations with high suicide risk and multiple, severe mental disorders. Dr. Linehan is the 2025 recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Her contributions to suicide research and clinical psychology research have also been recognized with the University of Louisville Grawemeyer Award for Psychology, the Career/Lifetime Achievement Award from the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies, the Gold Medal Award for Life Achievement in the Application of Psychology from the American Psychological Foundation, and the James McKeen Cattell Award from the Association for Psychological Science. In her honor, the American Association of Suicidology created the Marsha Linehan Award for Outstanding Research in the Treatment of Suicidal Behavior. Dr. Linehan was featured in Time magazine's "Great Scientists: The Geniuses and Visionaries Who Transformed Our World." She is founder of the Linehan Institute and a Zen master.
“DBT skills are useful not only for individuals who suffer from
persistent emotion regulation difficulties, but also for
individuals in extreme circumstances and people who have ordinary
problems. This updated manual provides the ‘flexibility within
fidelity’ in teaching these skills that practitioners and treatment
adopters need. New, improved, expanded, and much clearer
skills--they’re all here! Skills trainers and their clients will
benefit from Linehan and her colleagues’ decades of systematic
research and time spent developing, testing, and refining these
skills, empowering practitioners to confidently offer multiple ways
of understanding and practicing new behavior. Experienced skills
trainers will notice the evolved richness and depth, while the
explanations and teaching points will provide new trainers and
students with an excellent foundation for skills training with both
adults and adolescents. Providing a solid evidence-based foundation
for core clinical training curricula, the manual and accompanying
volume of handouts and worksheets will be essential across the
mental health disciplines."--André Ivanoff, PhD, Columbia
University School of Social Work
"Linehan's pioneering work has guided many--myself included--to
incorporate mindfulness into compassionate clinical care in a
structured format. The second edition of Linehan's DBT skills
training manual and the companion volume of handouts and worksheets
reflect two additional decades of wisdom and innovation, further
bolstering these indispensable resources."--Zindel Segal, PhD,
Distinguished Professor of Psychology in Mood Disorders, University
of Toronto–Scarborough, Canada
"Skills such as mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion
regulation, and distress tolerance are invaluable for those working
to overcome complex problems. DBT offers an especially effective
way to learn these skills. I highly recommend this book of
worksheets and handouts and the companion manual for
therapists."--Judith S. Beck, PhD, President, Beck Institute for
Cognitive Behavior Therapy
"DBT is a proven evidence-based treatment that combines the best of
our science with the knowledge and compassion of Marsha Linehan--an
exceptional researcher and clinician whose innovative work has
advanced the field and shifted many individuals from lives of
suffering to lives of hope. These outstanding second editions offer
guidance on how to implement DBT skills training, while providing
the tools needed to deliver this state-of-the-art treatment. They
will stand as the authoritative guides for teaching DBT skills,
partnering with clients to build lives worth living, and helping us
to address our national and international priorities of saving
millions of lives lost to suicide worldwide. These 'must-have'
books belong on the shelves of every clinician and will be valuable
course texts."--Joan Rosenbaum Asarnow, PhD, Department of
Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, David Geffen School of
Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles
"Since its introduction to the literature over two decades ago,
Marsha M. Linehan's skills training manual has revolutionized the
treatment of individuals with borderline personality disorder, and
also the practice of psychotherapy in general. Now in a second
edition, the manual and accompanying volume of handouts and
worksheets provides clinicians, educators, students, and patients
with a resource that can guide even novice clinicians to become
more effective and knowledgeable in treating our field’s most
challenging cases. Of interest to the psychoanalytically informed
reader, the second edition has elaborated DBT’s attention to
interpersonal concerns, with robust consideration of interpersonal
dynamics replacing the approach to enhancing effectiveness
presented in the prior edition."--Lois W. Choi-Kain, MD, MEd,
Director, Adult Borderline Center and Training Institute, and
Program and Medical Director, Gunderson Residence, McLean Hospital;
Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School -Marsha Linehan is
a pioneering and well-respected researcher and clinician.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) has become a therapy of choice
for BPD since the publication of her first manual in 1993. DBT has
been recommended in guidelines of the English National Institute
for Clinical Excellence (NICE)….Ideal for therapists, trainers, and
students, the manual can now show the extent to which theory is
underpinned by research on outcomes, quoting studies conducted
since the publication of the first edition. The research base now
includes core skills training for a variety of disorders and not
only for those with a diagnosis of BPD and suicide risk. This makes
the manual relevant to therapists treating varied clinical and
non-clinical populations. The skills for helping clients with
emotion regulation and distress tolerance should be in the
repertoire of every mental health practitioner and addictions
worker. There is a wealth of material in these manuals, now that
over 20 years the skills have been tried, tested and refined by
Linehan and her colleagues and made accessible to all. Trainers
will find that the teaching points in the training manual are
clear, with more practical examples citedan excellent foundation
for students. The rationale for emphasizing particular behavioral
skills is given as well as an explanation of how to use the
material with clients….The training skills manual, along with the
handout and worksheet volume are valuable resources for practicing
clinicians in the field of mental health and addictions, whether or
not DBT is their main orientation.--Alcohol and Alcoholism,
5/1/2015ƒƒThis is an essential resource for clients learning
dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills, and those who treat
them….The book offers quick, easy access to all needed handouts or
worksheets for building mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness,
emotion regulation, and distress tolerance skills….There is an
astonishing array of material contained in this 400-plus page
book….The ease with which these handouts will facilitate DBT makes
it an essential part of treatment and extremely valuable for the
nominal cost. *****--Doody's Review Service, 7/21/2015
