DBT for Life:Skills to transform the way you live by Diana Partington is a self-help book that teaches skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Engaging and accessible, the book features full-color illustrations, graphics, and short stories illustrating how to use skills in real life.
As a therapy, DBT is arduous and often difficult to access. DBT for Life provides a powerful way to connect with DBT Skills.
In DBT for Life, every chapter teaches one of the more significant skills. Short stories feature composite characters based on emotionally sensitive clients, friends, family members, and the author's experience living as an emotionally sensitive person. Chapters also include a detailed explanation of the skill, ideas for practice, and plenty of supplemental material.
DBT for Life features a "choose your own adventure" style. You may read the book from cover to cover or read chapters out of order. Or you may choose stories based on the illustrations. Or select a chapter based on a skill they need at that moment. You can approach the book in whatever way is most effective for you.
