Abstract

ABSTRACTThe role of client’s belief systems in therapy is the central concept in cognitive therapy. In our therapeutic work with clients, we focus on their cognitive schemas surrounding a particular problem.

The purpose of this article is to introduce the concept of “meta-schema,” from a theoretical perspective, and then offer clinical case examples to illustrate this concept.
