You are invited to attend Indianapolis’ first Master Clinician Workshop on Schema Therapy: A Breakthrough Treatment for Challenging Disorders and Trauma.

This exciting three-day workshop presents the model and interventions of Schema Therapy (ST), a breakthrough in the treatment of challenging disorders and trauma, including Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). ST is a unique integrative approach to psychotherapy with roots in Cognitive Therapy, learning theory, and the research of developmental psychology. The individual ST model developed by Jeffrey Young, PhD and the Group ST (GST) model developed by Joan Farrell, PhD and Ida Shaw, MA will be presented. ST has a growing evidence base that demonstrates significant positive effects in reducing BPD symptoms and increasing functioning and quality of life in both individual and group modalities. In addition, it is currently being tested as a treatment for Cluster C personality disorders, forensic populations, eating disorders and PTSD (including combat veterans). Individual ST is well described in Schema Therapy A Practitioners Guide by Young, Klosko & Weishaar, Guilford 2003 and GST in Group Schema Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder: Step by Step Treatment Manual with Patient Workbook, by Farrell & Shaw, Wiley, 2012 (available for purchase at the training or from www.wiley.com).

The workshop combines didactic presentation, trainer demonstrations, video of group interventions and opportunities for participants to experience and practice individual ST via experiential exercises and imagery work and GST in role-play groups. From attending the workshop participants will understand the basic interventions of the ST model, their adaptation for use in GST and the evidence base for ST. Handouts, group exercises and homework forms to use with patients will be provided.

Day one presents the theoretical model and core interventions of individual ST for a variety of psychological/psychiatric problems including BPD and other personality disorders. Day two continues to demonstrate the core interventions of ST and broadens to include their adaptation for a group. Video presentation of the trainers leading a group will be shown to illustrate the interventions. Day three focuses on role-play practice of techniques and additional trainer demonstrations in which participants play patients. The workshop qualifies for 18 credit hours toward international certification in Schema Therapy from the International Society of Schema Therapy. This is the first workshop in an organized curriculum for ST and GST that leads to certification in ST by the ISST. More information is available at www.ISST-online.com. Targeted audiences: psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, master’s level clinicians, and other mental health providers. Detailed learning objectives available online at www.bdp-home-base.org. Your trainers Joan Farrell, Ph.D., HSPP and Ida Shaw, MA

Joan Farrell, Ph.D. and Ida Shaw, M.A. are advanced level Schema Therapists and Trainer/Supervisors who co-direct the Indianapolis Center of the Schema Therapy Institute Midwest, a training, research and practice center, certified by the International Society Schema Therapy (ISST). The Indianapolis Center specializes in Group Schema therapy. Joan holds appointments in Psychology at Purdue University (IUPUI) and the University of Indianapolis and has been on the faculty of the Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM), in Psychiatry for 25 years. She teaches

graduate course on Schema therapy and supervises the practice of clinical psychology graduate students. She is Research and Training director of the IUSM/Midtown CMHC Center for BPD Treatment & Research. Ida is a consultant of that center and a supervisor for Group Schema therapy.





In their work they have integrated their complementary cognitive and experiential treatment approaches with social learning and developmental psychology theory to develop a group treatment model for Schema Therapy (ST). Influenced by their 30+ years of clinical experience and by the work of Dr. Jeffrey Young, they adapted ST interventions and limited reparenting to a group model and developed uniquely group interventions to accomplish ST goals (Farrell & Shaw, 1994). They first established the group model for outpatients in a specialty clinic for BPD at the IUSM outpatient clinic. This program was awarded an Indiana Governor’s Showcase Award in Mental Health and a NIMH grant. They went on to develop an inpatient ST program that combines individual and group modalities and directed a dedicated BPD unit for ten years at a university affiliated psychiatric hospital in Indianapolis. They evaluated their model of Group Schema Therapy in a randomized controlled trial for outpatients (Farrell, Shaw & Webber, 2009- funded by NIMH)) and in two inpatient pilot study (Reiss, Lieb, Arntz, Shaw & Farrell, 2011). Both studies demonstrated strong positive effects on BPD symptoms and global function as well as high recovery rates. Currently, they are the clinical trainers and treatment supervisors of a randomized controlled trial with 14 sites in five countries that will further test their model of Group ST. Dr. Farrell is co-PI for the multi-site study with Professor Arnoud Arntz, Ph.D. Also with Drs. Arntz, Lieb, Reiss and Fretwell, they are further evaluating the intensive GST model in Day Hospital and inpatient settings.

Their Group Schema Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder: A Step-by-step Treatment Manual with Patient Workbook, published by Wiley-Blackwell, will be available April, 2012. A three DVD Set Group Schema Therapy: Innovative Treatment for Personality Disorders (demonstrated with BPD) developed by Farrell and Shaw is also available, [email protected] in Europe and [email protected] in the US. Chapters on their work appear in Advances in ST (2010) and the Wiley-Blackwell Handbook of ST, Wiley 2012. They are working with colleagues in ISST on applying the GST model to other patient populations and as self-therapy for schema therapists. Farrell and Shaw have given keynotes, symposia and Master Clinician workshops on GST internationally for over 20 years for psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, psychiatric nurses, experiential therapists and graduate students in these disciplines. They receive outstanding evaluations for their enthusiastic and collaborative teaching style that includes demonstrations and group role play experiences for participants.

“Group Schema Therapy has the potential to deliver the powerful treatment strategies of the schema approach in a more cost effective manner than has been possible with individual schema therapy -- with equivalent or perhaps superior results. The experience that the authors have gained over 30 years is evident throughout. The approach Joan and Ida have developed is truly unique, exciting and promising. Joan Farrell is an outstanding schema therapist who serves as the “stable base”, emotional center, and “educator” for the group as a whole – a role I can imagine myself learning to fill, given enough time and experience. What truly amazed me – perhaps because her style is so different from mine and Joan’s -- was the remarkable group work of Ida Shaw. It is hard to convey the level of originality, creativity, and spontaneity she brings to the group experience. She is able to blend elements of gestalt, psychodrama, role-playing, and her own infectious style of play into an approach that perfectly fits the intensive demands of schema mode work, cajoling patients to change in profound ways.”
