A discourse in schema therapy considers incorporating new parental modes like Warning Parent and Boundless Parent. While the Warning Parent may be functionally distinct and therapeutically useful, the value of the Boundless Parent is debated. Some professionals argue that new modes offer real value only when clearly distinguishable from existing ones and when they provide therapeutic benefits.
The 'Child Adolescent Schematherapy' committee of the International Society of Schema Therapy (ISST) has fully revised the Case Conceptualization Form for Youth and the Competencies Scale for therapists. The translated versions are now available on the ISST website. These forms are mandatory for therapists seeking registration in the Child Adolescent subregister.
The Vereniging voor Schematherapie awarded a subsidy for research exploring mode interactions between partners dealing with anxiety and compulsive disorders. Conducted from 2026 to 2029, the study investigates predictable patterns in partner interactions, relating to specific complaints or more general relationship issues. Thirty couples will participate, with one partner undergoing treatment. This could guide schema therapy interventions.
