About the course
This workshop builds upon the content of the WS 1. Participation in WS 1 is a prerequisite for this immersion workshop. After a brief connection with the content of WS 1, the focus will be laid on the features of the work with parents ("Schema Coaching for Parents"), including psychoeducation, work with chairs, mode flash card, internal dialogue and imagery.
Another goal of this workshop is to apply the schematic therapeutic approaches to their own cases. After the case presentation in the plenary, participants work out in small groups, the schema therapeutic case concept and treatment plan of this patient and their family. Based on already implemented schematic therapeutic treatment, technical progress and problems in the used interventions are discussed. In the last unit participants will learn how to work with the "Inner House", and to follow the schema therapeutic approaches in the context of Play Therapy (preschool and primary school age). In particular, the content and methods are:
- Therapeutic relationship with parents: «Limited Grandparenting»
- Education of the schema and mode concept
- Collusion of schemas and modes among the therapist and the patient (child/parents)
- Schema Genogram
- Working with chair dialogues (2-Chair dialogues: Focus Detached Protector)
- Imagery (Visualizing Caring Parental Modes)
- Imagery Rescripting
- Illustration of the basic approach to case conceptualization
- Conceptualization and treatment planning for their own cases
- Working on the "Inner House"

- Special problems in therapy
Video and picture material, life demonstrations, and/or role-play in groups of two or three participants ensure the consolidation and deepening of what has been learned.
