Is the pattern of "reacting" rather than "responding" negatively impacting your relationships and professional life? Is your self-esteem battered from being constantly criticized for overreacting? These are indications that the issue lies in your nervous system rather than your cognitive process. When this is the case, it makes sense to focus treatment on developing techniques to modulate your nervous system. This will help you access critical thinking and respond in a productive way. Your relationships, career, and self-esteem will benefit when you are able to formulate a response rather than be driven by emotional reactivity.

Feeling anxious about your relationship? Does it feel like the two of you are living parallel lives? Are you asking: What has happened to us? We get so busy building our dreams, making sacrifices to advance our careers, balancing work & family commitments; that we grow apart. Add resentment, feelings of neglect or minimization and you feel like enemies not allies. But if you can't talk about it, without it blowing up, how do you make it better? You're committed, but life of just "co-existing" is NOT what you want. The emotional pain can make you doubt yourself, your partner, or if the relationship can survive.

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 recognizing 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.
