Validation - How the Skill Set That Revolutionized Psychology Will Transform Your

The key concept from psychology that unlocks true and lasting behavioral change

The validation skills from dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) revolutionized psychology by balancing the emphasis on changing behavior with a corresponding emphasis on acceptance. Now a prominent psychologist brings these validation skills out of therapy and into everyday life to help anyone decrease conflict, strengthen relationships, and change behaviors—in themselves and in others.
    As both a means and an end, validation has profound effects: it affirms a person’s experience
