Welcome!

You reached the English website of Eckhard Roediger MD.

This website in English is meant to give you some Information about me and my work. If you are looking for the German website please  go here.

I am mostly working as Trainer in German speaking countries, but due to my activities for the International Society for Schema Therapy (ISST) and some publications in English the interest in my work grew over the past years. To provide people who gained interest into the further develoment of schema therapy we created this website and started trainings in English recently.

My major contribution to the future development of schema therapy is the recently published book: „Contextual Schema Therapy“. It describes how a 3rd wave perspective deepens our understanding of a Healthy Adult mode and helps fine-tuning imagery work and chair dialogues. Besides that it outlines the theoretical underpinnings of schema therapy as an contextual therapy and provides the reader with a detailed manual how to apply experiential techniques even with “hard cases” focussing on and working with the therapy relationship. Thus it builds a bridge between behaviour therapy and psychodynamic in-session work. To give you a more vivid impression we uploaded some role-play Videos recorded in workshop in Helsinki in 2018.

A second focus of my work lies in the field of developing Schema Therapy with Couples (ST-C) further. Besides contributing significantly to two books on this topic (see Couples Therapy-page) we developed a system of 12 modules giving you handrails to guide you through your way through a therapy with couples. The modules add a layer of practical techniques to the bedrock outlined in the books.

Until now the website is rather basic but we will let it grow over time. Please feel free to use this link If you are interested in more specific information or want to contact me.

With best regards,
Eckhard Roediger
