Schema mode therapy

Divisive individuals may have experienced inconsistent, unpredictable and interpersonally intense parenting, and possibly early childhood trauma or abuse. Because of their multiple EMS and unstable coping styles, it is proposed that these individuals are more suitable candidates for schema mode therapy, rather than standard schema therapy (see Chapter 14 for the criteria for using mode therapy).
