Schema Therapy Psychologists and Therapists in Bayswater, WA
Counselling and coaching for blokes stuck in no man's land. You've got the job, the family, the toys. You should be happy, and you're not. You probably can't name why. There's anger that shows up out of nowhere, a relationship that's slowly falling apart, a sense of drifting, or a low-grade dissatisfaction that doesn't go away. You've probably tried to sort it on your own. Read a book. Changed your training. Had a weekend away. Things settled for a bit, then the same patterns came back. You're wondering if talking to someone might actually help.

Many of the people I work with are bright, capable individuals who have spent years wondering why life seems harder for them than for others. I support adolescents and adults with ADHD, autism and other forms of neurodivergence through therapy, assessment and practical strategies. Clients may be seeking formal assessment as to whether ADHD or autism could explain their experiences, or looking for support after diagnosis. I also work with parents of neurodivergent children and couples where one or both partners are neurodivergent, helping them better understand each other and build more supportive relationships.

The adolescents and adults that come and see me may have lingering questions about why they do what they do, why they feel the way they do and how to cope with a range of challenges like OCD, stress, anxiety, depression. Some wish for a more directive approach to their sessions - using the time to learn and implement coping or communication strategies. Others prefer space to explore and identify their own 'why and how' or explore whether they may be neurodivergent. My aim as a therapist is to provide a safe and comfortable space where we can do all of the above.

Schema Therapy
How does schema therapy work?
Schema therapy is based on the idea that maladaptive thought patterns formed in childhood—that other people can never be relied on, for example—can interfere with healthy functioning in adulthood. Accordingly, schema therapy works by directly targeting such unhealthy schemas, identifying their consequences, and replacing them with more adaptive ways of thinking. To this end, schema therapists aim to “reparent” the client by offering what they didn’t get in childhood—validation, for instance, or compassion—to reorient their worldview.
Is schema therapy evidence-based?
Schema therapy is still considered relatively new, and research on its efficacy is still in progress. However, some studies have concluded that it can be effective at treating certain mental health conditions, most notably personality disorders such as borderline personality disorder. Evidence for its efficacy in treating conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and OCD is promising but less conclusive, and experts warn that much of the existing research is of low quality.
Is schema therapy a type of CBT?
Schema therapy is based on many principles of CBT, most notably the process of recognising and challenging maladaptive thought patterns. But because schema therapy also draws from other approaches,including psychoanalysis and Gestalt therapy, it is not considered a form of CBT. It also typically delves deeper into the client’s childhood than does CBT.
How does schema therapy work?
Schema therapy does not call for a set number of sessions and is instead open-ended, with the treatment timeline depending on the client’s primary concern(s), progress, and preferences. Treatment that lasts between six months and two years is common, though many clients will start to see progress much earlier than that.
