"If you have not been lucky enough to attend training where Christine imparts her wisdom about emotions, this is the next best thing! A 'must have' for anyone wanting to understand more about emotions or teach emotion regulation skills to clients."



Dr Emily Fox, Chair, Society for DBT, UK and Ireland



This is THE book for any clinician who is truly committed to helping their clients free themselves from intense emotional pain and suffering. The form and function of each emotion is beautifully described in user friendly terms that are easily transmitted to clients. The case vignettes are realistic and helpful, encompassing many scenarios a clinician and client might encounter in the journey to increased emotion regulation skills.



Amy Gaglia, Senior Trainer British Isles DBT Training team.



The genius accessibility of this book will come as no surprise to anyone who has heard Christine speak about emotional regulation. This text should become a core read for any clinician, novice or expert, in developing greater emotional fluency to work effectively with clients who are emotionally phobic. The anecdotes and scenarios allow the reader a glimpse into the therapy session, to learn how to engage the client in behavioural rehearsal after walking through the steps of discerning, raising or lowering their affect to the required level.



Pamela Henderson Consultant Clinical Psychologist and Head of Psychological Services, locked rehabilitation hospital



"No other book I have read explains so clearly and succinctly how to teach a client to regulate their emotions. This book stands out for its ability to explain opposite action, using client scenarios that enhance the therapist's ability to replicate the techniques in therapy. This book will transform how opposite action is taught and is a must read for all therapists."



Dr.Rebecca Wallace, Area Lead NHS CMHT Principal Clinical Psychologist.
