Dialectical Behavior Therapy with Adolescents: Settings, Treatments, and Diagnoses

By K. Michelle Hunnicutt Hollenbaugh and Michael S. Lewis

Dialectical Behavior Therapy with Adolescents is an essential, user-friendly guide for clinicians who wish to implement DBT for adolescents into their practices. The authors draw on current literature on DBT adaptation to provide detailed descriptions and sample group-therapy formats for a variety of circumstances. Each chapter includes material to help clinicians adapt DBT for specific clinical situations (including outpatient, inpatient, partial hospitalization, school, and juvenile-detention settings) and diagnoses (such as substance use, eating disorders, and behavioral disorders). The book's final section contains additional resources and handouts to allow clinicians to customize their treatment strategies.
