The Healthy Mind Schema Cards are a complete set of client friendly therapy cards based on the evidence-based psychological framework known as Schema Therapy created by Dr Jeffrey E. Young.

This card deck explains the 18 ‘maladaptive schemas’ or ‘negative life beliefs’ that can form in early childhood when our emotional needs are not adequately met. They can serve as a complimentary resource to your schema therapy work, providing a visual aid and ongoing reminder to notice, name and restructure your internal belief systems and behavioural patterns.

The Healthy Mind Schema cards enable you to:

1. Identify and name your own primary schemas

2. Explore the common feelings and biased/unhelpful thoughts that may arise from the schema, with everyday examples provided

3. Provide unique imagery to conceptualise and visualise the schema and its healthy counter-part

4. Provide an alternative “Healthy Adult response” to combat and eventually replace the schema distorted thought pattern with what is seen as a healthy, balanced view

The Healthy Mind Schema cards are best used with the support of a qualified schema therapist, either in a therapy session and/or to assist with at home monitoring of your identified schemas. We also recommend utilising The Healthy Mind Schema Cards alongside the schema monitoring worksheet, which can be downloaded via the resource section of our website when you purchase the card deck.
