Schema therapy is huggie :) I like it :hug2:

I know! Probably the most effective form of therapy for BPD. I've seen Jeff Young lecture on it a couple of times though this year's lecture has just been cancelled.

I'm not surprised you think it's heavy going as it's aimed at therapists - it's by Beck (et al) who dreamed up Cognitive Therapy (note that CT and CBT aren't quite the same thing) and it's in constant reprint because it's on every CBT student's reading list. You might also be interested in Cognitive Therapy of Personality Disorders, (Beck, Freeman and Davis) (2004) and Schema Therapy (Young, Klosko and Weishaar) which Ross also recommends. Schema Therapy is largely about BPD now and CToPD covers all personality disorders with a chapter on each.
