Matis Miller is a clinician with expertise practicing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in various settings, with a wide range of psychiatric disorders. He is certified in CBT through the Academy of Cognitive Therapy (ACT). He has completed the Intensive Extramural Training Program at the Beck Institute for Cognitive Therapy and Research, led by Aaron T. Beck, MD. Additionally, Matis is Intensively trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and was awarded the newly developed certification from the DBT-Linehan Board of Certification in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. Matis is well-versed in evidence-based psychotherapies and lectures widely on topics related to CBT and DBT.

Matis is the founder, director, and supervisor of The Center for Cognitive & Behavioral Therapy of New Jersey, a private group practice focusing on using various evidence-based therapeutic models to provide the most effective care.

His specialties include anxiety, mood, and personality disorders.

Matis's new book, The Uncontrollable Child, is based on the concepts and skills of dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), a therapeutic model that broadens the mind and worldview.

DBT and the concepts outlined in The Uncontrollable Child are highly effective for children who struggle with impulse control and emotion regulation (i.e., effectively managing and responding to their emotions). These children may or may not have been formally diagnosed with a disorder such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), or disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD). If your child has one of these disorders or symptoms of any of them (which you'll learn about in chapter 1), this book will help you understand and parent him or her effectively.
