Introduced to me by Professor Bart during an Intro to DBT class at Columbia, this manual provides an accessible and adolescent-focused adaptation of the original DBT skills. Comparing it to the original manual, I found Rathus’ approach particularly engaging, and I appreciate how it tailors DBT concepts to meet the developmental needs of teens and budding adults.

A good diversity of exercises and skills; I do not follow the book directly as I do not run DBT groups but I find the skills and exercises relevant to my other adolescent groups and adaptable to individual practice. It's a clear concise read; a good reference book to have.

I really enjoyed the handouts and different tools that can be applied to the adolescents I work with. I personally do not lead DBT groups but it was helpful to learn more skills for the population of 11-17 year olds that I work with.

Excellent book to teach adolescents the skills of DBT. Great exercises to practice with the kids as well.
