SCHEMA THERAPY APPROACH FOR PERSONALITY DISORDERS

Journal Title: Ufuk Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 12

Abstract

Schema therapy (ST) is an integrative treatment method to chronic lifelong problems with effectiveness, supported with empirical studies for treating personality disorders. Theoretical assumptions and clinical effectiveness of ST, becoming increasingly popular recently, has gained more attention by clinicians and researchers. However, complex cases in ST have been difficult to treat for many clinicians. Considering that ST is not adequate by itself for the treatment of more complex cases, Schema Mode Therapy (SMT) has been seen as an advanced piece of ST for the therapists when they feel frustrated. SMT, referring to more advanced work with modes for the treatment of particularly complex psychopathology, is an effective therapy method. However, review articles of SMT and ST for personality disorders that integrated both theoretical assumptions and empirical studies are limited in Turkey. In an attempt to fill this gap in the literature, this review article discussed theoretical and treatment parts of SMT and ST with therapeutic alliance and effectiveness studies within the frame of personality disorders. SMT and ST appear to be a promising integrative treatment approach to personality disorders, particularly borderline personality disorder.
