Schema Therapy: An Experiential Approach to Dealing with Maladaptive Schema Mode

Abstract

Early adverse childhood events lead formation to maladaptive schema and schema modes. Maladaptive schema modes are triggered by life events in adult life causing intense unpleasant emotions. Schema therapy provides an experiential approach to understanding and changing schema and modes.Schema is formed in an individual and is influenced by interactions with others, culture and upbringing. Schema is present in everyone with or without psychological disorders. Early maladaptive schema was proposed by Jeffrey Young as a pervasive dysfunctional pattern of emotions, thought and sensations associated with one’s relationship with others, developed as a result of early aversive childhood events [1]. These significant unpleasant early experience leads to formation of maladaptive schemas that is linked to maladaptive schema modes. Schema mode refers to transient emotional and behavioral response to a live event [2]. Schema mode often triggers strong unpleasant emotions.
