this course is for you if you are one of those people. It covers the key areas of: validation; core mindfulness skills; skills of regulating one's emotions; distress-tolerance skills and more.

Schema Focused Cognitive Therapy
 
To identify people's key schemas is as close as we get to finding 'what makes a
person tick'.
 
A schema is a package of behavior, biology, emotion and cognitions, which all fire off when triggered by the right stimulus. So if someone has a strong schema of 'mistrust', this will easily be triggered in situations which may not warrant mistrust. This will have unfortunate results for their relationships and more; a person's mistrusting behavior is not good to receive. The course is about (a) how to identify the schemas that people have, and (b) how to intervene to modify those schemas to the benefit of everyone.
