Future training  Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Attachment From Cradle to Grave Schema Therapy - Dr. Jeff Young Working with Dreams |
||||
BOOKING INFORMATION - Schema therapy is an innovative psychotherapy developed by Dr. Jeffrey Young for personality disorders, chronic depression, and other difficult individual and couples problems. Schema therapy integrates elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, object relations therapy, and gestalt therapy into one unified, systematic approach to treatment. These training days will explain the basic conceptual and clinical model of Schema Therapy. There will be illustrations of the various treatment strategies and how these are derived from an understanding of the underlying schemas and how these, in turn relate to unmet core needs in childhood or adolescence. Schema therapy is recognised as a CBT treatment but is aimed at modifying the deeper personality structures that lead individuals into situations where they begin to have symptoms. In so doing it utilises a model of symptom formation and personality structure that is very close to psychodynamic, attachment based, object relations thinking. Schema therapy is an evidence based therapy. In a recent trial in Holland, |
Schema Therapy was tested against Transference focussed therapy as atreatment for Borderline Personality Disorder. After three years of twice weekly therapy 46% of the group offered Schema Therapy had complete recovery and could no longer be classified as borderline. This weekend will cover the essential Schema Therapy model and will include a brief introduction to schema mode work, which is used in the treatment of BPD, but it will not cover BPD as such. The concept of Early Maladaptive Schemas is a clarifying and incisive conceptual tool which will be helpful to anyone working in depth with individuals. Schema Therapy should be of particular interest to psychologists or counsellors who work with clients that have enduring and complex problems. Schema Therapy may also be of interest to counsellors and therapists who are trained in the psychodynamic paradigm but who are interested in clarifying and articulating how cognitive distortions (and interventions to correct these) could arise as a result of internal object relationships. It may also be of particular interest to non CBT practitioners who, under the pressure of the NICE guidelines, are considering how it might be possible to integrate CBT skills and methods into their work. |
