For the past nine years, Patricia Miller has seen firsthand the huge difference the use of Dialectical Behavior Therapy coping skills developed by Marsha Linehan, has made with patient after patient, who have successfully completed the curriculum in her Intensive Outpatient Program at the Cleveland Clinic Union Hospital in Dover, Ohio. Why don’t we teach these skills to our children? Without doubt, we should be. Miller has created this Mindfulness picture book series to take children on a magical adventure while teaching them important DBT foundational skills simultaneously. Teachers, therapists, and parents alike can utilize this series to help children learn skills that they can successfully use throughout their entire lives. Successful emotional management can bring happiness to us all.
