The first English-language workbook designed to help clients understand and engage with schema therapy Schema therapy (ST) is an integrative approach for treating personality disorders (PD) and other mental health concerns that often do not respond to other treatment options. Schema therapy combines elements of psychoanalysis, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), attachment theory, and emotion-focused therapy, amongst others. The Schema Therapy Workbook is a step-by-step guide designed to help clients in individual, group, or integrated ST settings get the most out of their therapy sessions. Using jargon-free language, this user-friendly workbook explains what schema therapy is and how it works—guiding readers through each part of the ST process to achieve maximum effectiveness. The various components of treatment can be used either individually or in combination, offering the flexibility to engage with therapy in a way that meets clients' specific needs and maintains positive changes in their lives long after formal therapy ends. Throughout the Workbook, descriptive text, practical tips, relatable examples, and engaging illustrations help readers understand the "modes" and "schemas" of their problems, set realistic treatment goals, develop ongoing awareness, use tools and strategies to prevent relapses, and much more.

This unique resource helps therapists build their skills in schema therapy (ST) by applying ST techniques to themselves and reflecting on the experience. Designed for use by individuals or groups, the book harnesses the power of self-practice/self-reflection (SP/SR), an evidence-based training strategy. Twenty modules take therapists step by step through using ST to address a professional or personal problem--from establishing safety and creating a self-conceptualization to implementing mode change work, including cognitive, experiential, and behavioral pattern-breaking interventions. In a convenient large-size format, the book is illustrated with vivid therapist examples and features numerous reproducible worksheets and forms for doing the SP/SR exercises. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible materials.See also the authoritative clinical reference, Schema Therapy: A Practitioner's Guide, by Jeffrey E.
