Now in a fully revised second edition, this authoritative manual presents the only dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)-informed approach designed specifically for people of all ages with learning and mental health challenges. Used in a wide range of clinical and community settings, the Skills System teaches essential emotion regulation and adaptive coping skills in a motivating, structured framework. It allows clinicians to provide comprehensive treatment for individuals who have had difficulty engaging in traditional therapeutic services. In a convenient large-size format, the manual features ideas for scaffolding learning, a sample 12-week group curriculum, and practical tools, including a reproducible/downloadable lesson planning worksheet. Client handouts and worksheets are not included in the second edition, but are provided in the companion workbook designed to optimize client learning, available separately in print or fillable e-book formats: The Emotion Regulation Skills System Workbook, Second Edition.
