Thank you, but I'm looking for a self-report measure of affect regulation (self or emotion regulation) that can be applied to the psychotherapy situation - apart from the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) which I'm already aware of.
Check this out and ask for the scale from the email address:

Affect regulation and psychopathology in women with borderline personality disorder.
Andersen R, Timmerby N, Simonsen E.
Abstract
INTRODUCTION:
Dysfunction in affect regulation is a prominent feature that grossly impairs behavioural and interpersonal domains of experience and underlies a great deal of the psychopathology in borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, no study has yet been published that evaluates the psychometric properties of the translated Danish version of self-report measures sensitive to the different aspects and dimensions of dysfunction in affect regulation prevalent in BPD.
MATERIAL AND METHODS:
This study comprised a group of women diagnosed with BPD (n = 29) and a comparison group of healthy subjects (n = 29) who reported psychopathology and levels of affective instability, aggression, impulsivity and alexithymia by self-report measures.
