No matter how #blessed you are, sometimes life can feel downright overwhelming. Whether it's a breakup or divorce, the loss of a job, or even a global pandemic, you may need a little extra help managing the difficult emotions that can arise when things are not going so great. Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) is a proven-effective and evidence-based treatment that can help you find balance and improve your ability to handle adversity without losing control and acting destructively.

This potent and portable guide focuses on one of the core skills of DBT: distress tolerance. With this book, you'll learn that you are strong enough to weather life's storms. You can handle whatever stress or setback life throws your way. And you can face your own difficult thoughts and feelings head on-without avoidance, anger, or despair.

Life happens. But you don't have to get pulled under. With Distress Tolerance Made Easy, you'll learn tons of tips and tricks to help you keep your cool-even when those emotional triggers strike. Why not keep a copy on your nightstand, in your glove box, or on your work desk? You never know when you'll need it!

Industry Reviews
“As a fellow dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) therapist, author, and trainer, I am always on the lookout for simple, practical, and effective ways of making DBT skills accessible to the average reader. In this book, you will find just that! Even after using, teaching, and writing about DBT concepts for more than a decade, I now have a richer understanding of distress tolerance that I am excited to try on myself—and share with others!” 
—Kirby Reutter, PhD, bilingual clinical psychologist with the department of homeland security, and author of The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook for PTSD
