Discovering that your teen "cuts" is every parent's nightmare. Your most urgent question is: "How can I make it stop?"

Tens of thousands of worried parents have turned to this authoritative guide for information and practical guidance about the growing problem of teen self-injury.

Dr. Michael Hollander is a leading expert on dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), the most effective treatment approach for cutting. Vivid stories illustrate how out-of-control emotions lead some teens to hurt themselves, how DBT can help, and what other approaches can be beneficial.

You will learn practical strategies for talking to teens about self-injury without making it worse, teaching them skills to cope with extreme emotions in a healthier way, finding the right therapist, and helping reduce stress for your whole family.

Incorporating the latest research, this second edition offers a deeper understanding of the causes of self-injury and includes new DBT skills.

      Hollander, Michael. Helping Teens Who Cut: Understanding and Ending Self-Injury. Guilford. 2008. c.204p. index. ISBN 978-1-59385-705-9. $38; pap. ISBN 978-1-59385-426-3. $14.95. PSYCH~A reassuring, well-written resource for parents seeking answers, information, and help for a child who self-injures through cutting. While parents of teens who cut is the intended audience, teachers, health-care practitioners, and parents of teens in general may also benefit from the information and sound advice Hollander presents. Background: There is an abundance of information available on cutting behavior, but most of it targets teens or professionals. Hollander, director of Adolescent Services at a renowned psychiatric facility in Massachusetts, has filled a void in the literature by offering this resource specifically for parents. In a sympathetic tone, he acknowledges the emotions and difficulty both parents and teens may face as they struggle to understand and overcome the injurious behavior. Hollander offers practical advice to help parents better understand and communicate more effectively with their child. He clearly explains what is known about cutting behavior, addresses it causes, and identifies effective treatment options.--Susan E. Thomas, Schurz Lib., Indiana Univ. South Bend.
