Abstract

Young has developed the Scheme therapy during the last 20 years, from the casuistic of the ones who share his approaches. The Scheme therapy comes up as a good alternative to those patients who suffers consolidated chronic psychological disorders, considered difficult to treat, including patients
with TP and those who have significant characterological aspects that constitute the disorder basis of Axis 1 Disorders.
