This book is dedicated to the memory of two special people, Ray F. Dexter III and Mike Hackman. Lizz Dexter-Mazza never met her brother, Ray, who died by suicide at the young age of 15 in 1968 before Lizz was born. Jim Mazza supported his high school friend and teammate, Mike, as he battled mental health problems for over 30 years before he died by suicide in 2010. The legacy and memories of our loved ones, Ray and Mike, and countless others who confront similar challenges today, fuel our passion for helping adolescents develop effective emotion regulation skills and decision-making strategies. Our hope is that the DBT STEPS-A curriculum will make a difference in the lives of all adolescents. About the Authors James J. Mazza, PhD, is Professor in the College of Education at the University of Washington, where he teaches and conducts research in the field of adolescent mental health. Dr. Mazza’s research focuses particularly on adolescent internalizing disorders, such as depression, anxi- ety, posttraumatic stress disorder, exposure to violence, and, especially, suicidal behavior. His work also examines the complex relationships among adolescent mental health issues, social–emotional abilities, and academic skills through multi-tiered systems of support. Dr. Mazza has written extensively on how to identify youth who are at risk for suicidal behavior, as well as on how to develop social–emotional learning (SEL) curricula to help all students learn emotion regulation skills. He has worked with over 30 school districts and thousands of school personnel in developing and implementing comprehensive school-based suicide identification and prevention strategies for adolescents. Dr. Mazza also provides consultation and training to school personnel internationally on implementing DBT STEPS-A in schools, on developing mental health intervention services within multi-tiered systems of support, and on integrating SEL curricula as a part of a school system’s role in educating the whole child. He is the co- owner of Mazza Consulting and Psychological Services in Seattle, Washington. Elizabeth T. Dexter-Mazza, PsyD, is the co-owner of Mazza Consulting and Psychological Services, where she conducts comprehensive dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and skills- based coaching for adolescents and adults and provides parent coaching and support to family members and friends of individuals with emotion dysregulation. Dr. Dexter-Mazza provides training and consultation to schools, mental health agencies, and individuals in implementing DBT skills and therapy. She is also a trainer for Behavioral Tech, a company that offers DBT trainings to mental health professionals around the world. Dr. Dexter-Mazza completed her postdoctoral fellowship under the direction of Marsha M. Linehan at the Behavioral Research and Therapy Clinics (BRTC) at the University of Washington. She served as Clinical Director and a research therapist at the BRTC for Dr. Linehan’s research studies, which provided both individual DBT and DBT group skills training. Dr. Dexter-Mazza has published several book chapters and peer-reviewed articles on DBT, borderline personality disorder, and graduate school training in managing suicidal clients. vii viii About the Authors Alec L. Miller, PsyD, is Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Montefiore Medical Center of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, New York. He is also Co- Founder and Clinical Director of Cognitive and Behavioral Consultants, a training and con- sultation center in White Plains and Manhattan.

His publications include over 80 peer-reviewed articles and book chapters, as well as four books, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy with Suicidal Adolescents (coauthored with Jill H. Rathus and Marsha M. Linehan) and DBT Skills Manual for Adolescents (coauthored with Jill H. Rathus). Dr. Miller has trained thousands of clini- cians and school personnel in DBT internationally.

Dr. Rathus codeveloped the adolescent adaptation of DBT with Alec L. Miller, and her current research includes psychometric evaluation of the Life Problems Inventory, of the Acceptability of Walking the Middle Path Skills Module, and of factors in training and implementing adolescent DBT. Her interests include DBT, CBT, adolescent suicidality, relationship distress, and assessment, and she publishes widely in these areas. Dr. Rathus is also a trainer with Behavioral Tech and a lecturer internationally on DBT with adolescents. She is a coauthor of six books, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy with Suicidal Adolescents and DBT Skills Manual for Adolescents. Heather E.

She is adjunct faculty in educational psy- chology at the University of Washington. Dr. Murphy previously worked as a school psy- chologist in elementary, middle, and high schools for 7 years.
