A component in Dr. Linehan's comprehensive treatment program, the manual also features practical pointers on when to use the other treatment strategies described in Cognitive-Behavioral Treatment Currently employed in a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings, this manual provides everything a clinician needs. It includes lecture notes, discussion questions, exercises, and practical advice on what problems are likely to arise and how best to deal with them. It also features an array of client handouts that may be readily photocopied.
