I have found schema therapy very helpful. It has a focus on CBT type things with practical exercises about coping with present day life, but it also has a lot of work around recognising early trauma or loss (depending on each person I guess) with a some imagery work and also I think a lot more emphasis on the T relationship that with traditional
CBT, and it is more long term. I have found it very very helpful. Life-changing, in fact.
