Emotional Schemas and Self-Help: Homework Compliance and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Section snippets
Case Example
The patient reentering therapy was a 38-year-old single woman with a long history of obsessions about possible mistakes and leaving things undone. Her compulsions were primarily rechecking doors, windows, locks, and projects at work. She reported that her earlier experience in therapy with me had been useful in understanding OCD, but she felt she had not been “ready” for exposure, consequent anxiety, and risking any negative outcomes and regrets if she were to forego her neutralization.

The role of childhood trauma, early maladaptive schemas, emotional schemas and experimental avoidance on depression: A structural equation modeling
2016, Psychiatry ResearchCitation Excerpt :Emotional schemas “refer to plans, concepts, and strategies employed in ‘response to’ an emotion” (Leahy, 2002, p. 179). Leahy, (2002, 2007a, 2007b) assumed that different types of emotional schemas develop and maintain depression through the depressogenic appraisal of emotions and the application of maladaptive coping strategies such as avoidance. Therefore, negative attributions and interpretations with regards to emotions (emotional schemas) would probably result in avoidance strategy (Leahy et al., 2011).
