Building on the success of Schema Therapy for Children and Adolescents, this book describes how to adapt schema therapy approaches to help young people with eight common conditions who experience difficulties in areas such as coping, relating and self image. The authors explore the schemas and modes that play a specific role in anxiety, depression, OCD, eating disorders, conduct disorder, borderline personality disorder, ADHD and autism, and show how to engage and help young people by adapting schema therapy techniques into fun mode characterisations and playful treatment games. Examples illustrate each technique, and further resources are also provided. Tackling a wide range of unhelpful behaviour patterns by linking them to unmet needs and then addressing them with age-adapted interventions, Contextual Specific Schema Therapy for Children and Adolescents combines CBT, systemic family work, developmental science and experiential techniques in a unique model for helping troubled young people.
