This comprehensive guide offers a groundbreaking approach to managing individual and group schema therapy. By dividing the therapeutic process into four distinct phases, each characterized by specific attitudes, goals, and exercises, the therapist and client can collaborate step by step towards achieving a successful outcome. The book provides clear guidelines for achieving a harmonious balance between confrontation, collaboration, cognitive, behavioral, and experiential techniques, rules, freedom, and work and play.

Phase 1 prioritizes safety and security, while Phase 2 challenges the client to confront and process old pain and emotions. Phase 3 empowers the client to take control and explore new experiences, and Phase 4 focuses on reinventing oneself and learning to live happily as a human being, embracing the full spectrum of emotions and challenges that come with it.

Within each chapter, there is a wealth of phase-specific exercises, points of concern, and practical tips to facilitate the therapeutic journey. This approach offers a structured and effective framework for addressing complex schema-related issues and promoting personal growth and well-being. Whether working with individuals or groups, this guide provides valuable insights and tools for achieving lasting change and improving relationships.
