Cognitive And Dialectical Behavior Therapy Unleashed: How To Regulate Your Emotions, Control Your Mood And Change Your Behavior Through Mindfulness Awareness
Most people ideally want to live a fulfilling life which includes having a healthy relationship with themselves as well as others. However, what precludes a great deal of people from attaining this fulfillment in life is the inner turmoil that consumes them. This inner turmoil inevitably leads to distress which affects everything around them such as personal relationships, family relationships, work relationships etc. This distress can lead them to suffer from maladies such as anxiety, phobias, depression, addiction, eating disorders, issues with self esteem and anger, emotional suffering, post traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder and various other behavioral and mental health difficulties.
The reason why people find it difficult to resolve and overcome this inner turmoil and become “stuck” is because of their ineffective thinking process. In his book entitled Cognitive and Dialectical Behavior Therapy Unleashed, author James Ashley covers in detail how two types of therapies, Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy can be utilized to produce a more effective thinking process for the individual that leads to more favorable and positive results and the resolving of this inner turmoil. This book explores the various components of both treatments.
You will learn:
• The basics of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) which includes the thinking-feeling-behavior paradigm.
• The importance of thinking healthier and more effective thoughts as you discover how significantly what you think impacts what you experience and how you behave
• Some very specific techniques that you can begin implementing right now to improve how you feel and make some lasting behavioral changes
• The fundamental aspects of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and how you can use the four DBT modules to create effective change in your life.
• How to regulate your emotions, control your mood and change your behavior through mindfulness awareness.
And Much Much More!

Excellent Primer
This brief books presents both types of therapy very clearly. It shows the differences and the commonalities. It does a good job of presenting both a brief theoretical overview of the therapy and then presenting exercises and techniques used by them. The language is plain, not very academic and you are not bogged down with footnotes or academic references. A great point of entry for those interested in understand what these therapies are about. Five stars as popular work of general education and self help.

Wow. I used this as a reminder for my prior treatment, in conjunction with my therapy. It reminded me of skills I previously learned, but have not been practicing. It also hit me deeply, as a person with Borderline Personality Disorder, Bulimia, PTSD, Anxiety, and Major Depression. I feel stronger now, and that I can manage using these skills. Thank you.
