The third in the series of our discussions on the abandonment schema and its role in romantic relationships.  In this episode we discuss the ways that an abandonment schema can play out in an otherwise stable and secure relationship and cause havoc for you and your partner. 

What are some of the ways that an unchecked or largely unhealed abandonment schema can sabotage your relationship? How can you begin to notice your abandonment triggers in this contents and use your “healthy adult” mode to help you navigate through the maze of abandonment feelings.  It’s not easy but you can get there over time!

As a Clinical Psychologist, I’d describe myself as an integrative therapist; someone who brings together lots of different approaches to meet the differing and deeply personal needs of my clients. I take a non-judgemental and respectful stance in my clinical practice and treat each person I work with as a unique individual with an important life story. I have extensive education including a research Ph.D. (UNSW) and 25 years of experience. These days, in addition to my client work at the Good Mood Clinic, I run special interest training on Schema Therapy for fellow professionals and supervise other therapists.
