About this Title:
- The definitive workbook for learning evidence-based DBT skills—now with more than one million copies sold!
- Do you have trouble managing your emotions? First developed by Marsha M. Linehan for treating borderline personality disorder, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) has proven effective as treatment for a range of other mental health problems, and can greatly improve your ability to handle distress without losing control and acting destructively. However, to make use of these techniques, you need to build skills in four key areas: distress tolerance, mindfulness, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
- The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook, a collaborative effort from three esteemed authors, offers evidence-based, step-by-step exercises for learning these concepts and putting them to work for real and lasting change. Start by working on the introductory exercises and, after making progress, move on to the advanced-skills chapters. Whether you're a mental health professional or a general reader, you'll benefit from this clear and practical guide to better managing your emotions.

No matter what, suggesting this book will be taken as an attack.
If somebody came to you and asked for help with dealing with emotions, then this book would be useful. Otherwise, don't even bother. Seriously.
As for quality, DBT is, I think, useful for some people. I think it has some stupid bits, but that's not a reason to throw it out.
As to recommending it to someone, I would probably only do it if they had talked before about wanting to read self-help books or considering therapy. And then carefully pick your moment to bring it up. Maybe even say it looks interesting and you're considering it, too, and say that's why you're mentioning it.
I'm more interested in the version of this on CBT, but this was such a great deal and I still may find useful things in it, so I went ahead and got it. You wouldn't necessarily need to be interested in DBT to tell her you thought this sounded useful to you and that's why you were mentioning it to her.
