Different treatment methods have been developed for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex trauma sequelae, which differ, among other things, in the treatment focus (primarily exposure vs. restructuring/overwriting). The integrative schematherapeutic treatment approach conveyed here in a practice-oriented manner includes several imagination sessions in the "trauma-specific" treatment phase, which deviate from the "classical" schematherapeutic imagination. The advantage of this integrative schema-therapeutic treatment approach lies above all in the combination of an exposure phase with two longer modification phases, in which patients can use the therapist's model to disempower and disidentify perpetrator introspections and functional...

On the other hand, in the further course of therapy, the case concept serves as a common point of reference to which both can refer in schema activation situations and thereby achieve clarification of the process. Important aspects for the design of the whole therapy as well as individual lessons are conveyed....

For the schema-therapeutic process it is crucial to be able to penetrate to the basic needs and emotions of the injured child. Stagnant therapy processes, lack of emotions on the part of the patients ("I don't feel anything", "I can't remember"), the impression of not being able to approach the patients, of hitting a wall, can be indications of the activated mode of the Distant Protector. The emotion-avoiding coping strategies of the Distant Protector not infrequently block the central process of emotional work in patients who have previously only been able to protect themselves in this way....
