Review “This excellent workbook makes a valuable contribution to the psychosocial treatment for people with psychosis. Writing in a clear, engaging style, Mullen shows how core dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills can be used to reduce symptoms associated with disorders on the psychotic spectrum, build a support network, and improve quality of life.
