Synopsis

Schema Therapy Step by Step is a practical guide to understanding schema therapy and applying it with clarity and confidence. The authors explain the basics of schema therapy theory – how unmet core emotional needs shape early maladaptive schemas, coping responses and modes, and how these patterns lead to longstanding psychological difficulties. They also provide detailed descriptions of schemas, modes and emotional needs, alongside step-by-step guidelines for assessment, case conceptualisation and treatment across the initial, middle and final phases of therapy.

Techniques such as imagery rescripting, chairwork, cognitive restructuring and behavioural change are illustrated through therapist–client dialogues and three running case studies. The book also offers worksheets, mode models, safety plans and adaptations for diverse populations, settings and treatment formats including adolescents, groups and clients with intellectual disabilities.
