A type of psychotherapy known as schema-focused treatment includes elements of interpersonal therapy, experiential therapy, and cognitive behavioural therapy. The people who demonstrated self-defeating thought patterns and behaviours and didn’t respond well to conventional kinds of psychotherapy improved most from schema-focused therapy.
