Changing behavior using dialectical behavioral therapy. Herd Heidi L., Suels Michael A.

This book carefully studies the solution of problems, which is one of the main components of dialectical behavioral therapy (DPT). The authors are leading DPT specialists. They explain the principles of therapy for changes in behavior and clearly illustrate the effective application of these principles using examples of cases from medical practice. In addition, the book pays special attention to the common mistakes of psychotherapists in the analysis of target behavior (for example, suicide attempts or episodes of overeating and purification), as well as the choice and application of relevant decisions. The book also contains recommendations for the successful implementation of the entire range of methods for solving problems, including skills training, stimulus control and exposure, cognitive restructuring and accident management.
