Workshop 1: Introduction to the Model and Methods of GROUP SCHEMA THERAPY 

by Ida Shaw, Joan Farrell,       Schema Therapy Institute Midwest-Indianapolis Center 

and Erlend Aschehoug,                  Schema Therapy Institute Scandinavia

Group Schema Therapy was developed by Farrell & Shaw (1994, 2012). The GST model integrates their original group work with Young’s individual Schema Therapy (ST) (2003) & the ST outcome research of Arntz (2009). This three day training is the first of a series of three workshops that cover the required curriculum for ISST certification in GST. In it we present the GST model and its core interventions, which are used depending upon the stage of the group and the mode profiles of the group members. Core interventions include: group limited reparenting, group imagery re-scripting, mode-specific group role-plays, experiential group work and the distinctive two therapist model that is crucial for maintaining the essence of limited reparenting with the more severe disorders.

The work of Farrell and Shaw with Borderline personality disorder patients is presented along with their adaptations for other patient groups. Group Schema therapy functions in the same way as individual ST – i.e. therapist limited reparenting and mode change interventions are determined by the mode a patient is in. GST works by a patient’s mode and mode profile, rather than strictly by disorder. For that reason, GST like ST, can be used with any patient population. Demonstrations by trainers with participants playing patients from their clinical population are used to demonstrate adapting GST interventions for the presenting modes of various diagnostic groups. The workshop incorporates: didactic sections with powerpoint and group discussion, demonstrations by trainers in which the workshop participants play patients, DVD segments of the trainers leading a group and opportunities for participants to practice group interventions with coaching and feedback. This is the first workshop in an organized curriculum of training in Group Schema Therapy offered by the Schema Therapy Institute Midwest – Indianapolis in cooperation with your host institute. It is eligible for 18 training hours credit in the International Society of Schema Therapy certification program.
