Dialectical behavioral therapy. Kerner K.

Dialectical behavioral therapy (DPT) is a set of methods for the treatment of a wide range of behavioral disorders, ranging from chronic suicidal behavior and ending with a borderline personality disorder, as well as such threatening and worsening models of behavior, such as suicidal, self -regulatory and self -destructive behavior. Enjoyable ties, unemployment, lack of permanent residence, poverty. The complex use of DPT (individual and group therapy, group development of skills, consultations with a psychotherapist) is also effective in abuse of psychoactive substances, bulimia and psychogenic overeating. The book describes the conceptual structure underlying the DPT, and the recommendations are given on its use, including with the multiplicity of the client’s goals, when it is necessary to correctly set priorities. DPT is a fairly flexible type of therapy that allows it to adapt it to the needs of each patient at any time.
