Helping adults of all ages heal from the past and create optimal quality of life in the present. Schema Focused Therapy (SFT) was developed by Jeffrey E. Young, Ph. D. While working with Dr. Aaron Beck at the Center For Cognitive Therapy, Dr. Young noticed there was a group of clients that did not respond as quickly or strongly to traditional cognitive therapy as one would hope.
These clients, who tend to have long-standing problems and entrenched, dysfunctional beliefs, what Dr. Young calls schemas, seem to respond better to powerful change techniques to "heal" maladaptive schemas. These techniques include working with painful memories and images that are an integral part of the schema. Evoking such memories can be emotional for the client.
However, it appears to be crucial to restructuring the memory and help "heal" the schema. Health Coaching offers adults improved quality of life through nutritional education and individualized nutrition plans targeted to help resolved symptoms of poor focus and attention, anxiety, insomnia, and depression as well as weight loss.
