Cutting Down provides a practical and accessible treatment programme based on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) principles for young people who self-harm.
This fully revised and updated second edition includes new techniques from 'third' wave CBT, Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). This enriches the material and brings the concepts up to date. Another key addition to this new edition is the inclusion of strategies for young people who engage in suicidal behaviour. The manual is evidence based and focuses on a flexible and formulation driven model to direct treatment in around 15 sessions for young people and six sessions for parents and caregivers. It provides a clear structure for each session and an easy-to-follow outline on how the therapist should deliver each session. The content of each session is supported by handouts and worksheets which can be used within sessions or as homework between sessions.
Enhanced with online resources, the workbook will be useful for all professionals working with young people who self-harm across a wide range of settings from schools, primary care and voluntary sector, to community mental health services and inpatient units.
Industry Reviews

'This second edition of Cutting Down again offers structure and practicality to achieve the best outcomes for young people who self-harm and their families. In this accessible manual, the authors bring "order" to the management of self-harm which will give both therapist and patients confidence and direction. The overall stance is of positivity, normalisation, hope and collaboration, enhanced by the addition of a parent/carer module, a new hopelessness module and up to date techniques from third wave CBT, offers an accessible and evidenced based protocol to reduce and stop self-harm.' Isobel Heyman, Professor, Honorary Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, Psychological Medicine, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust
