Schema Therapy Glasgow

The Power of Schema Therapy

Schema Therapy draws upon various therapy frameworks, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychoanalytic Therapy and Attachment Theory, it is this combination targets deeply ingrained schemas and break negative patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. It combines cognitive, experiential, and behavioural strategies, utilising the therapeutic relationship as a catalyst for change.
Unlike short-term therapy approaches, Schema Therapy is a longer-term treatment option that typically spans 15 or more sessions. This duration is necessary to target and transform core dysfunctional themes that have developed and solidified over a person’s lifetime. Through Schema Therapy, individuals gain insight into their schemas, challenge and modify unhelpful beliefs, and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

What to Expect from Schema Therapy in Glasgow:

Schema therapy in Glasgow is typically a longer term form of treatment, extending over months or even years, as it involves comprehensive exploration and restructuring of deeply ingrained cognitive patterns. Throughout the therapeutic process, clients work collaboratively with our therapists to identify their schemas, recognise their coping styles, and develop healthier ways of dealing with emotions. 

 

Our therapists employ various techniques to facilitate change, such as cognitive interventions that challenge and reframe schemas, emotional strategies that explore the impact of schemas on feelings and relationships, and behavioural techniques that encourage adaptive responses. 

 

Additionally, schema therapy often incorporates homework assignments, such as maintaining a schema diary or engaging in role-play exercises, to deepen self-awareness and track progress.
