Schema Therapy: A Practitioner's Guide Book

I checked it out from the SU library and couldn't read and renewed it a couple of times until someone else put a hold on it. I had to rush through it. It is written for the therapist rather than the client. I found the theatrical, comfort your vulnerable child yourself, to some extent funny. As if, what we see as our personality were a byproduct of a game we call life. Which may be true of course. Compared to Reinventing your life (RYL) there were new concepts introduced here. The defectiveness schema was something I identified with, the inhibition schema is something that I identify with a character on whom I want to develop a novel. But these were briefly mentioned. I read more about the defectiveness in the much earlier released RYL which covered only 11 schemas whereas this one had seven more one of which was inhibition.
