Schema Therapy for Individuals Training Program

Be a Pioneer in Treating the Most Challenging Cases with Schema Therapy

Imagine being a renowned chef known for cooking up the most delectable dishes from seemingly tricky ingredients. With our individual training program in Schema Therapy, you’ll become that chef, only in the world of psychotherapy, transforming lives of challenging patients with your expertly honed skills.

A Champion Among the “Big 4”

As part of the “Big 4” in treating Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Schema Therapy shines brighter than the North Star in its effectiveness. Picture a key that fits perfectly into a complex lock—Schema Therapy is that key, aligning exquisitely with intricate challenges presented by disorders such as BPD. Studies show that patients treated with Schema Therapy experience robust recovery rates, remarkable reductions in depression, and substantial improvements in social and general functioning.

Stepping into the realm of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) treatment is like entering a grand tournament, where four dominant models vie for the top spot. These Big 4 include Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT), Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP), and of course, Schema Therapy (ST).

While each model brings its unique strengths to the table, Schema Therapy has consistently proven its mettle as a heavyweight champion. It’s like the ace tennis player who, while facing formidable opponents, manages to edge out the competition with versatility and finesse. In this tournament of therapeutic models, Schema Therapy frequently emerges as the top performer or equals the best, especially in areas such as robust recovery rates, significant reduction in depression, and substantial improvements in social and general functioning.
