This memoir gives a thorough account of the development of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and outlines its key componemts. Having DBT explained in narrative form helped me understand it better. Learned a lot about where this therapy came from.

As far as memoirs go, Marsha Linehan's is pretty dry. With her strange, stilted syntax, and idiosyncrasies like exclamation points at unusual places, she would have benefited from a co-author. Also, by my estimation, she used the phrase "get out of hell" about 237 times.
All that being said, it was intriguing reading about how different skills of DBT were inspired and developed.

At times Marsha's experiences read as incredibly naive, and at others incredibly wise. What an amazing story of growth and accomplishment.
