Inside this resource
Understanding NSSI: Function and Comorbidities
The course begins by defining non-suicidal self-injury and differentiating it from suicidal behaviors. You learn how NSSI functions to alleviate emotional discomfort and explore the comorbid conditions — anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder — that frequently co-occur with self-injury presentations.
CBT and DBT Treatment Strategies
Clinicians learn practical CBT strategies and a range of DBT interventions for working with clients who engage in mild to moderate self-injury. The course teaches how to validate NSSI without condoning it, engage resistant clients, and increase willingness to change through evidence-based techniques.
Role-Plays, Case Studies, and Risk Management
Full of realistic role-plays and revealing case studies, this treating self-injury course demonstrates how to manage risk and handle setbacks during treatment. You also learn when and how to refer severely affected clients for full modal DBT programs.
Building Clinical Confidence
A core goal is helping clinicians overcome professional fear and feel competent in treating people with NSSI. The course covers distraction techniques, relapse prevention, and practical tips for integrating self-injury treatment into broader clinical practice.

Solid content on CBT and DBT strategies but the course could benefit from more diverse case studies. The case examples presented were limited in demographic range.

Barent Walsh’s teaching on the function of NSSI completely changed how I approach these patients. The validating-without-condoning framework was immediately applicable in my next session.

Finally felt confident enough to work with NSSI clients after completing this course. The risk management and referral guidance for severe cases was exactly what I needed.
David R. –
The treating self-injury course had excellent role-plays showing real clinical dynamics. The DBT interventions were practical and well demonstrated. Would have liked more on adolescent-specific presentations.
