An important new development in the field of psychotherapy is the application of Cognitive Therapy (Beck) and Schema-focused Therapy (Young) in the treatment of patients with personality disorders and persistent anxiety or mood disorders.
The starting point of Schema-focused Cognitive Therapy (SCT) is that certain (early) learning experiences, in conjunction with a particular temperament, have led the patient to establish disfunctional schemas (pitfalls), which are important in the development of personality disorders and persistent mood and anxiety disorders. Tracking down, influencing and changing these schemas is the goal of the treatment.
