Today Jeannine interviews Dr. Laura Petracek, Phd.
Dr. Laura Petracek is a Clinical Psychologist, author, and speaker who has over thirty years of experience in the field of psychotherapy.
Jeannine and Dr Petracek discuss her latest book, "The DBT Workbook for Alcohol and Drug Addiction." When recovering from addiction and managing a mental illness, it can feel like both have the ability to take over your life. By applying the principles of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) to your recovery program, this workbook equips you with the tools to regulate your emotions, develop self-management skills, reduce anxiety and stress, and feel yourself again.
DBT is a combination of CBT, mindfulness, and distress tolerance skills tailored to those who feel emotions very intensely. Exploring skills and strategies drawn from DBT that work in tandem with your recovery program, this book provides a new roadmap to reduce symptoms of emotional distress and to support your sobriety and mental health.
This ground-breaking workbook draws on the author’s clinical and lived experience of addiction recovery, bipolar disorder, and other mental health challenges.
Jeannine asks Laura for specific tools for regulating emotions in a heated moment, as well as tools to assist with urges or craving with behaviors one would like to change or quit.
