nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Why Standard Therapy Misses Some Clients Some clients arrive prepared, engage cooperatively, complete every task assigned to them, and make no progress. They are not resistant or unmotivated. They are overcontrolled, and the models most clinicians are trained to use were never built for them. Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy was developed specifically for this population, yet for trainee therapists, counseling students, and those supporting someone referred to this model, accessible introductory resources have been almost entirely absent. What This Book Offers RO-DBT for Beginners provides a plain-language introduction to Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy for readers encountering the model without prior knowledge. Drawing on the framework developed by treatment founder Thomas Lynch, the book explains the concept of overcontrol and why it differs fundamentally from the emotional dysregulation standard DBT addresses. It covers the neurobiosocial model of overcontrol, the full treatment structure from orientation to discharge, and the skills curriculum across three domains: openness, flexibility, and social connectedness. Chapters address the model's application across restrictive anorexia nervosa, treatment-resistant depression, obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, autism spectrum presentations, and Cluster C personality disorders. A dedicated chapter is written for families and carers. What Makes This Book Different Rather than reproducing clinical handouts or skills worksheets, this book builds conceptual understanding through realistic composite examples, clear definitions, and a logically sequenced teaching structure. Every major term is introduced in accessible language before being used freely. The scope is honest: this is a conceptual foundation, not a practice manual, and it does not claim to certify any reader to deliver treatment. For those approaching formal RO-DBT training or the Lynch textbooks for the first time, it provides a grounded and accurate starting point. This Book Is for Readers Who This book is for readers who are training in counseling, psychotherapy, or clinical psychology and have encountered RO-DBT in placement or supervision. It serves psychology students engaging with clinical literature on overcontrol disorders for the first time, and practitioners seeking orientation before committing to specialist training. Clients preparing to begin RO-DBT and family members supporting someone with an overcontrolled presentation will also find it directly relevant.

Why Standard Therapy Misses Some Clients
Some clients arrive prepared, engage cooperatively, complete every task assigned to them, and make no progress. They are not resistant or unmotivated. They are overcontrolled, and the models most clinicians are trained to use were never built for them. Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy was developed specifically for this population, yet for trainee therapists, counseling students, and those supporting someone referred to this model, accessible introductory resources have been almost entirely absent.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
