[Schema therapy with children and adolescents – a conceptual and evidence-based overview].

The paper highlights the essential pillars of schema therapy as well as outlining the basic concepts of early maladaptive schemas, domains, emotional core needs, and the mode model. We present an overview of the important features of the schema therapy and look at the special schematic therapeutic relationship work, thereby focusing on emotional processes, needs-oriented biography work, age-appropriate psycho-education, and schema coaching for parents. Clinical recommendations are given based on the recent evidence.
