Schema Therapy in Frisco, TX
Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from themselves. They may be navigating anxiety, mood challenges, ADHD, trauma, or major life transitions while feeling pressure to keep functioning on the outside. Often, they’re insightful and capable, yet stuck in patterns of burnout, overthinking, or masking their needs. They want clarity, emotional stability, and support that feels understanding rather than judgmental.

Do you find yourself repeating the same patterns in relationships only for it not to work out? Struggling to trust others or yourself? Maybe you give too much, or shut down completely. Whatever it looks like for you, these patterns often run deeper than the relationship itself.
I specialize in working with adults who are navigating relational struggles rooted in attachment, and the anxiety and depression that so often come with them. Together we explore the core beliefs you formed early in life about yourself and others, and how those beliefs are quietly running the show in different areas of your life.

Are you your own worst critic? Maybe you spend a lot of time beating yourself up, asking questions like “What’s wrong with me?” I know because I’ve worked with so many other people with similar struggles, and as a veteran, I’ve experienced it myself.

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.
