A workshop to be presented by Professor David Edwards www.schematherapysouthafrica.co.za Schema therapy is an integrative therapy initially developed by Jeffrey Young during the 1990’s to address the challenges of working with complex cases.It has become increasingly evidence-based as randomized controlled trials have demonstrated its effectiveness with most personality disorders, including Borderline Personality Disorder. A recent international trial showed that a combination of group schema therapy and individual schema therapy can be particularly effective. Another recently published trial showed that schema therapy is efficacious in the treatment of violent offenders who have been incarcerated. Schema therapy is being increasingly used internationally with a range of challenging clinical problems including treatment resistant depression, eating disorders and complex trauma. The presenter is certified with the International Society of Schema Therapy (ISST) as a schema therapist and trainer and was the President of this Society for four years from 2017-2020. The full six-day program presents all the major components of schema therapy: experiential, relational, cognitive and behavioural and shows how they are integrated within a comprehensive case conceptualization to develop a therapy plan that can help clients towards the process of “Reinventing your life” (the title of the self-help book by Jeffrey Young and Janet Klosko). It meets the requirements for workshop training of the ISST. Fuller details are available at http://www.schematherapysouthafrica.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/2015-STISA-training-program-in-ST.pdf This course covers the first half of the 40 hours of didactic and experiential training specified by the ISST. It is a component of the overall training that leads to certification by the ISST as a schema therapist. It also leads to the award of the South African Diploma in Schema Therapy. |
