Happy New Year!

From your friends at the

International Society of Schema Therapy

New Year, New Beginnings

A preview of what the new year offers


Your friends at the International Society of Schema Therapy would like to wish you a glorious, rewarding and productive new year, a chance for new beginnings to expand your personal and professional experiences.

Perhaps more than ever, the times that we live in require us to open our minds to new challenges, and to create even more opportunities for solutions that help transform people’s lives. Together our worldwide community of clinicians, researchers, educators, and supporters can be mindful of the quote from Vivian Greene: 

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, 

it's about learning how to dance in the rain."

Scroll through some of the many benefits and opportunities in store for you as a member and supporter of the International Society of Schema Therapy in 2018.
