Schema Therapy (CBT Distinctive Features)

The book was in excellent quality and provided a nice overview of the clinical literature on Schema Therapy and clinical application.

The road ahead is long - but at least this book gives you a good road map. Concrete examples and methods.

This text offers a quite reasoned and clear presentation of the elements of Schema Therapy. A set of logical steps in understanding, then utising this particular method. Nicely done.

This book changed, and I think saved my marriage.

As a psychologist who has been practicing Schema Therapy for several years this book looks like it will be a very useful addition to the therapy process. Clients often ask for something to read to help them along. Up until now we only had "Reinventing Your Life" to offer them. That book is good, great even, but it was written before the concept of modes was introduced. Schema Therapy: Distinctive Features discusses schemas and modes and does so in a comprehensive reader friendly fashion. I expect to keep a copy on my desk for reminders and assign it to my clients and grad students as a matter of course.

It's is fine

Gives a concise overview of schemas and the therapy. Good to give to patients to get an understanding of the theory and process.

The book explains schema therapy: the theory and the approach in psychotherapy practice. It's a good summary, a good introductory text.
