Schema Therapy
What is Schema Therapy?
Schema Therapy is an integrative and evidence-based therapeutic approach that combines elements of cognitive-behavioural therapy, attachment theory, and psychodynamic principles. Developed to address long-standing patterns of maladaptive thoughts and behaviours, Schema Therapy is particularly effective in treating chronic and pervasive emotional issues.
Core Components of Schema Therapy:
Early Maladaptive Schemas:
-
Identify and explore deep-seated, unmet emotional needs and early life patterns that contribute to current challenges.
​
Schema Modes:
-
Understand different states of being or "modes" that individuals may experience in response to stressors.
-
Develop strategies to manage and shift between different modes effectively.
​
Cognitive Restructuring:
-
Challenge and reframe negative thought patterns that reinforce maladaptive schemas.
-
Cultivate healthier ways of thinking and responding to life events.
​
Experiential Techniques:
-
Utilise experiential and emotion-focused techniques to access and process emotions related to early life experiences.
How Schema Therapy Can Help:
Chronic Depression:
-
Address and transform long-standing patterns of negative thinking and self-perception
​
Personality Disorders:
-
Schema Therapy is highly effective in treating personality disorders, especially those rooted in early maladaptive schemas.
Relationship Issues:
