Experiencing Schema Therapy from the Inside Out: A Self-Practice/Self-Reflection Workbook for Therapists (Self-Practice/Self-Reflection Guides for Psychotherapists)

Great book. Wish I had bought a new copy, so much writing in the used copy it is too distracting. I still hope to learn from it and share with clients.

WOW! Excellent information, instruction, experiential activities that will prove effective in resolving the unmet, unknown, unaddressed inner experiencings of ANYONE who wants to be empowered by doing so.

Joan Farrell and Ida Shaw are outstanding schema therapy experts. Their book is a thorough, clear and healing resource for psychotherapists .Most of us have schemas, modes and coping modes that may interfere in our personal and/or professional lives . This is a golden opportunity to overcome our personal challenges and be our “best version”. I strongly recommend this book!

This book brilliantly addresses the challenge of consistently providing effective ST by better understanding our own schema’s. Created as an advanced level blueprint for understanding the emotions that may get triggered in client sessions (or life) the authors can almost be heard cheering on the reader to enhance the quality of their work. Written exercises and self-reflection help answer the questions that may come up in doing schema work: why am I feeling this way & what can I do about it? In helping therapists better recognize the impact of our personal schemas, the authors teach us step-by- step how to be fully present in our therapeutic work and able to more fully utilize the depth of the ST approach. Highly recommended.

i am only half way through but so far I like it a lot. i am learning a lot about myself. .

A very detailed book

Very informative.

DO NOT BUY THE KINDLE! As a psychotherapist for past 10 years, I was so excited to continue my study of Schema Therapy to better help my clients. I was so excited for a book that I could get firsthand knowledge by using it on myself. I'm sure this book is great but just not in the kindle. I really feel like I wasted my money since the authors and creators of this book didn't put it in the correct kindle format making it extremely difficult to read. The font is set possibly at a "5" and its a strain on the eyes. Even trying to zoom does little to help. As an author this makes little sense that fellow authors don't understand how to have the book file converted to a mobi format to be read in the kindle. There are those you can hire to do this service for next to nothing on places like fiverr. All I can do is hope and pray any of them read their reviews to realize this issue and fix it. I am completely dissatisfied with this purchase. This is my warning to save buyers their $20. I'm happy to update this review when they update their kindle book format.

Spot on

The exercises are both instructional and helpful to therapist and client.....well written and easy to follow

Cadeau

I recently completed ST training. This book is so useful for me to review the fundamentals of schema therapy while applying the methods for my own issues as a therapist. It helps to apply the methods to the clients.

A most read for all therapist, psychologists and psychiatrist out there, even if you don’t use Schema Therapy. The authors are extremely experienced and managed to pass their understanding and expertise in a fantastic way. Highly recommend this book!
