Books in the Theories of Psychotherapy Series (R) series

Reviews the theoretical underpinnings and practice of dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), a treatment developed by Marsha Linehan to treat borderline personality disorder. DBT has proven to be effective with a range of mental health problems, including selfharm, suicidality, substance abuse, and eating disorders that are often difficult to treat.

Offers an overview of the history, theory and practice of multicultural therapy, with case examples and ties to current events that bring the text to life. This book pays attention to racial and ethnic identities, while exploring the intersectionality of a variety of strands of identity that are also aspects of individuals' experiences.
