Developed over 25 years by preeminent experts, DBT Next Steps is a groundbreaking expansion of standard Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for clients who have moved beyond crisis behaviors--yet haven't achieved their goals in such areas as employment, school, and relationships. Combining skills training with exposure, contingency management, cognitive modification, and didactic strategies, DBT Next Steps fills a gap by systematically targeting quality-of-life-interfering behavior. In a convenient large-size format, this authoritative clinician's manual provides detailed lesson plans for six brand-new DBT skills modules: Perfectionism versus Reinforcement, Establishing and Re-Evaluating Relationships, Time Management, Managing Emotions Effectively, Succeeding after DBT, and Applications of Mindfulness. It shows how Next Steps can be incorporated into an existing DBT program or used as a follow-up treatment. Reproducible skills training handouts and assignments are provided in the related client resource, available separately: DBT Next Steps Skills Handouts.
