he does a lot of vanilla CBT as well, but for me he suggested schema. i am very interested and it sounds ideal for me. i have been doing a LOT of reading. Everything from web sites to journal articles.
i think it's relatively new outside of treatment of personality disorders. That is what it was originally developed for.. but it has moved beyond that now. It comes out of CBT but incorporates a little psychodynamic, and gestalt.
you're right Penny, and i am paying attention to the positives. But i am inquisitive by nature and it's the science in me too.. i want to understand it and so i want to know what the objections are.
There is one article i found...dang... the title was something about whether schema should come with a warning label... but it's in a journal that i have to go to this special library to get and i haven't made it there yet.
i just want a well-rounded view. i suppose that some of the criticisms of CBT still apply, just not as many.
if either of you want to discuss schema more i'm up for it.. might as well, i'm doing the reading anyway.
