Synopsis "Dialectical Behavior Therapy with Suicidal Adolescents"

Filling a tremendous need, this highly practical book adapts the proven techniques of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to treatment of multiproblem adolescents at highest risk for suicidal behavior and self-injury. The authors are master clinicians who take the reader step by step through understanding and assessing severe emotional dysregulation in teens and implementing individual, family, and group-based interventions. Insightful guidance on everything from orientation to termination is enlivened by case illustrations and sample dialogues. Appendices feature 30 mindfulness exercises as well as lecture notes and 12 reproducible handouts for "Walking the Middle Path," a DBT skills training module for adolescents and their families. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print these handouts and several other tools from the book in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size. See also Rathus and Miller's DBT Skills Manual for Adolescents, packed with tools for implementing DBT skills training with adolescents with a wide range of problems.

Marsha M. Linehan (Tulsa, Oklahoma, 1943) es una psicóloga, investigadora y profesora estadounidense, reconocida por desarrollar la Terapia Dialéctico-Conductual (DBT), uno de los tratamientos psicológicos más influyentes para la regulación emocional y las conductas suicidas. Se doctoró en Psicología Clínica en la Universidad Loyola de Chicago y posteriormente desarrolló gran parte de su carrera académica en la Universidad de Washington, donde es profesora emérita.

A partir de su investigación sobre el comportamiento suicida y el trastorno límite de la personalidad, Linehan creó la DBT, un enfoque que combina estrategias de cambio conductual con aceptación, mindfulness y principios de la tradición zen. Su trabajo transformó el tratamiento de personas con graves dificultades de regulación emocional y ha sido respaldado por numerosos estudios clínicos.

Es autora de varios libros y manuales sobre DBT, además de sus memorias, Building a Life Worth Living. Por sus aportes a la psicología clínica y a la prevención del suicidio ha recibido numerosos reconocimientos a lo largo de su trayectoria.
