“I have been eagerly awaiting this second edition, and it was well worth the wait. As Marsha Linehan has said, Rathus and Miller are the experts in DBT for adolescents, and their expertise shines through on every page. Drawing on decades of experience developing, implementing, and teaching DBT-A around the world, Rathus and Miller have created an indispensable resource that is both evidence based and immediately practical. The thoroughly updated Manual equips clinicians with the knowledge, structure, and clinical wisdom needed to deliver DBT-A skills with fidelity, and the Workbook equips clients with the tools they need. Together, these volumes are indispensable for trainees, seasoned clinicians, and anyone committed to providing high-quality DBT-A.”

“Rathus and Miller have delivered again! This second edition, now presented in a manual and companion workbook, retains all the essentials we rely on so heavily for treating teens—and adds so much more. The authors have broadened the treatment population, improved the clarity of the lessons, used more inclusive language, and included even more examples and exercises. Even better, they have added new skills, including skills for social media/screen use and for self-management, along with multiple skills for parents. I can’t wait to use the second edition with my clients.”
