Do you find yourself stuck in recurring, unhelpful life patterns in relationships, work, or how you feel about yourself? These might stem from deeper ‘schemas’ or core beliefs developed early in life. At Clarity Health Care, our Schema therapists in Melbourne (Malvern and Fitzroy) and Hobart (Sandy Bay and Kingston) as well as our telehealth team, are skilled in helping you understand and heal these underlying issues with Schema Therapy.
What is Schema Therapy?
Schema Therapy differs from your traditional relationship counselling. Rather it is an integrative approach, drawing from CBT, attachment theory, and other models. It goes beyond addressing immediate symptoms to explore the roots of long-standing emotional and relational difficulties. It helps you to:
- Identify your core unmet childhood needs and the ‘maladaptive schemas’ (negative life patterns and beliefs) that developed as a result.
- Understand how you cope with these schemas (e.g., avoiding situations, overcompensating).
- Heal these emotional wounds through techniques like imagery, chair work, and a corrective therapeutic relationship.
- Develop healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving to get your core needs met.
For expert Schema therapy in Melbourne or Hobart, Clarity Health Care offers compassionate guidance and support.
