Synopsis "Coping With Cancer: Dbt Skills to Manage Your Emotions--And Balance Uncertainty With Hope "

This compassionate book presents dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), a proven psychological intervention that Marsha M. Linehan developed specifically for the impossible situations of life--and which she and Elizabeth Cohn Stuntz now apply to the unique challenges of cancer for the first time. *How can you face the fear, sadness, and anger without being paralyzed by them? *Is it possible to hold on to hope without being in denial? *How can you nurture supportive relationships when you have barely enough energy to take care of yourself? Learn powerful DBT skills that can help you make difficult treatment decisions, manage overwhelming emotions, speak up for your needs, and tolerate distress. The stories and collective wisdom of other cancer patients and survivors illustrate the coping skills and show how you can live meaningfully, even during the darkest days.

Marsha M. Linehan (Tulsa, Oklahoma, 1943) es una psicóloga, investigadora y profesora estadounidense, reconocida por desarrollar la Terapia Dialéctico-Conductual (DBT), uno de los tratamientos psicológicos más influyentes para la regulación emocional y las conductas suicidas. Se doctoró en Psicología Clínica en la Universidad Loyola de Chicago y posteriormente desarrolló gran parte de su carrera académica en la Universidad de Washington, donde es profesora emérita.

A partir de su investigación sobre el comportamiento suicida y el trastorno límite de la personalidad, Linehan creó la DBT, un enfoque que combina estrategias de cambio conductual con aceptación, mindfulness y principios de la tradición zen. Su trabajo transformó el tratamiento de personas con graves dificultades de regulación emocional y ha sido respaldado por numerosos estudios clínicos.

Es autora de varios libros y manuales sobre DBT, además de sus memorias, Building a Life Worth Living. Por sus aportes a la psicología clínica y a la prevención del suicidio ha recibido numerosos reconocimientos a lo largo de su trayectoria.
