"Through its clear and organized writing, [this book] is a great
learning experience as it explains through figures and points how
to lead a successful therapy. . . By following the instructions of
the editors, readers gain insight and knowledge into how best to
incorporate DBT into their work and how best to help clients who
require this therapy."
*International Journal of Psychotherapy*
"Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Emotion Dysregulation . . .
contains an excellent introduction to the theory and it offers
basic knowledge on how it is applied. . . . I gained a basic
understanding of the theory, and also found tools to work with
clients who are struggling with their emotions."
*The Milton H. Erickson Foundation Newsletter*
"I enjoyed this series from two different perspectives: The first
perspective is as a professor of counseling who occasionally
teaches theory. Students using these books will find them readable,
thorough, and applicable to the practice of therapy. New therapists
will find them useful to consolidate their own use practice, and
they will possibly be introduced to new material. . . . For the
experienced practitioner who wants to expand into other modalities,
these books introduce a new therapeutic approach. And for those who
have only had a quick overview of many theories, this series offers
another look, and possibly new material to add to what was already
studied. . . . I recommend this series and hope that it will be
expanded to include other therapeutic approaches."
*The Milton H. Erickson Foundation Newsletter*
"Psychotherapy Essentials To Go is a truly impressive series of
books. Elevating pragmatics over dogma, it is grounded in the
wisdom of front-line psychotherapists who adapt the core principles
of empirically supported psychotherapies to flexibly address a
myriad of clinical issues. No other series of psychotherapy
handbooks is as skillfully concise and yet thorough. It will
quickly become a standard reference for teaching and enhancing
clinical competence."

Mood Disorders, University of Toronto–Scarborough; author of The
Mindful Way Through Depression*
"How fabulous is this! A brief primer on DBT written by one of the
world’s experts in DBT treatment and research. Even better:
practical exercises are included throughout. My advice to you is to
try this out. You won’t regret it."
