FAQ Schema Therapy

Q: How long does schema-informed therapy take? A: This approach is typically medium-term work, often lasting 3-8 months depending on your goals. It's much shorter than full schema therapy while still addressing underlying patterns.

Q: How is this different from full schema therapy? A: Schema-informed therapy uses schema concepts and insights integrated with other approaches like CBT and CFT. It focuses on the most relevant patterns for your current concerns rather than comprehensive schema work, making it more accessible and time-efficient.

Q: Will I still get the benefits of understanding my patterns? A: Absolutely! You'll gain valuable insights into your core patterns and how they developed. The difference is we focus on the schemas most relevant to your current goals rather than exploring all possible schemas.

Q: What if I want longer-term schema work after this? A: If you find the schema insights particularly helpful and want to pursue more comprehensive schema therapy, I can discuss referral options to accredited schema therapists who specialise in longer-term work.
