Calming The Emotional Storm Using Dialectical Behaviour Skills To Manage Your Emotions And Balance Your Life
Paperback Edition: 1
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a therapeutic modality that was originally developed for the treatment of borderline personality disorder (BPD). Since the advent of this therapy, millions of people without the disorder have found DBT skills endlessly useful for helping manage out-of-control emotions and curbing
impulsive behaviors that they just can't stop. Calming the Emotional Storm is the first book to offer an accessible, general introduction to these DBT skills for anyone who feels overwhelmed by their emotions or feels that their emotions have led them to experience out-of-control behaviors and personal crises.

These life-changing skills can save many readers from unnecessary suffering due to the "emotional storm" inside.
