ST Education Session 4 of Schema Therapy for the healing of early maladaptive schemas associated with borderline traits continues with experiential strategies. Schema Therapy integrates cognitive, experiential, and behavioural pattern-breaking work and this integration is one of the unique features of the model. Patients tend to be familiar with cognitive and behavioural interventions, so the focus here is on experiential interventions and the work that integrates the three. Work with imagery, including imagery rescripting, is explained and discussed. “We use an exercise that demonstrates to patients that they are able to ‘do imagery’ and that it is not a painful or overwhelming experience”.
