Consider that DBT’s developer, Marsha Linehan, has been profiled in the just released 2018 edition of TIME magazine’s Great Scientists.
TIME’s list of the 100, “geniuses, eccentrics, and visionaries who transformed our world” included Marsha along with such luminaries as Jonas Salk, Marie Curie, Louis Pasteur, Charles Darwin, Margaret Mead, Sigmund Freud, Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton. Marsha has earned several recent major awards for her research and clinical work in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, including the 2015 Scientific Research Award from the National Alliance on Mental Illness, the 2016 Lifetime Achievement Award from the Association for Behavioral & Cognitive Therapies and, in 2017, the prestigious University of Louisville Grawemeyer Award for Psychology.
Needless to say, as a DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician™ you will be in fabulous company!
