Schema Therapy: A Practitioner’s Guide
does anyone know if there is some foundation for why there would be 18 schemas….
oh the book is very good in many ways:)

and perhaps the 9 intelligences of gardner too

I have reviewed other book by these writers. At this time I have not read this book. But, it is in my library with the others to read soon. I am desiring to learn more about this technique. I don’t have any of my professional peers that have much knowledge on this therapy technique. So, I am taking the first step to see if this is a therapy that I can use in my group practice.

The book has outlined the help you need to deal with these schemas. Has examples of schema cards. Very good book. Its a add on to ReInventing you life. Could help a lot in conjunction with counselling. Fills you in on all the schemas and ways that some people fought the schema along with help from psychologists. I feel these schemas need professional help to overcome, but this book prepares you for what you are up against and informs you of how a psychologist would go about helping you.

I bought this after seeing Jeff Young’s introductory workshop on Schematherapy (I’m a psychologist). The book added depth to what I learned in his excellent workshop and enabled me to begin implementing Young’s techniques. This approach has empirical evidence demonstrating its effectiveness with people who have Borderline Personality Disorder. I strongly recommend the book (and Young’s workshop) to mental health professionals who are working with this population.
