While there are many successful books describing the
theories and research of clinical psychology, there is a gap in
content, providing structured and simulations to rehearse critical
skills, mental health professionals need in the field.Â
Advanced Therapeutics, Clinical and Interpersonal Skills series
aims to fill that gap. Authored and edited by leading experts, each
volume in the series focuses on one subfield within mental health,
providing concise and practical exercises for professionals. Each
volume is based on an empirically based pedagogy that is
structured, incremental, and tightly focused on the essential
skills mental health professionals must acquire to obtain
licensure/registration and enter the workforce.Â
Practical Exercises for Clinical Psychology, volume one in
the series, focuses, on providing concise and practical exercises.
These exercises include repairing alliance ruptures, motivating
patients to address barriers to change, suicidal behavior
strategies and establishing boundaries/ limits. Each of these
exercises has been tested by leading experts and clinics in the
field. This book is based on an empirically based pedagogy that is
structured, incremental, and tightly focused on the essential
skills clinicians must acquire to enter the workforce and
successfully treat patients.
Deliberate practice exercises allow students and trainees to
rehearse foundational dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
skills and strategies to respond effectively and flexibly to
diverse, complex clinical presentations and situations. Â
Each book in the Essentials of Deliberate Practice series contains
customized role-playing exercises in which two trainees act as a
client and a therapist, switching back and forth under a
supervisor's guidance. The trainee playing the therapist improvises
appropriate and authentic responses to client statements organized
into three difficulty levels—beginner, intermediate, and
advanced—reflecting common issues encountered by DBT
practitioners. Â The first 12 exercises each focus on a
single skill, such as validating clients, encouraging commitment to
therapeutic goals, teaching problem-solving skills, and working
with clients in crisis or expressing suicidal ideation. Following
these are two comprehensive exercises—an annotated transcript and
free-form mock therapy sessions—in which trainees integrate
essential skills into a single DBT session. Â Step-by-step
instructions guide participants through the exercises, identify
criteria for mastering each skill, and explain how to monitor and
adjust difficulty. Guidelines to help trainers and trainees get the
most out of training are also provided.
Developed by Marsha Linehan, PhD, Dialectical Behavior Therapy
(DBT) is an evidence-based treatment for borderline personality
disorder that integrates principles of change and acceptance in
order to help clients who have severe emotion dysregulation and
impulsive behavior. This guide describes the primary tenets of DBT
and illustrates some of its essential techniques namely validation,
commitment strategies, behavioral chain analysis, and skills
coaching that can be used with a range of clients. By understanding
underlying problems and balancing compassionate acceptance with a
push for change, clinicians can use DBT basics in their day-to-day
work to help clients manage emotion dysregulation and impulsive
urges. Included in this comprehensive guide are a DVD of sample
therapy sessions and clinical explication that describe how to
implement the protocol, as well as a laminated pocket reminder
card. An on-the-go package of practical tools that busy clinicians
won t want to be without."
