Now we talk about which current things activate my schemas and question the negative automatic thoughts as in traditional CBT. T doesn't deliberately try to activate my schemas though.

www.schematherapy.com/id30.htm is a very good website by the guy (Young) who first developed schema therapy, if anyone wants to know more.

Well that has been my thought through out this process. T deliberately activating schemas in order to work on them... hmm. Still no response from T. This must be client dumbing since she did seem frustrated with me otherwise I hope she is truely okey. She usually is when not responding. But its a first she has not offered a new appointment.. " the not picking up the phone or responding to texts" is old news. Sooo ?? Still confused about the whole thing but think thats just it then
