0:07.0	Hey deserving listeners, today I'm going to do a deep dive on schema therapy. I find schema therapy to be a good theory. I like it. It's
0:18.9	practical, but it also can be very deep I think it's very useful it provides very specific examples
0:27.6	it's not this very amorphous theory you know psychodynamic theory, which I love, can be quite amorphous sometimes.
0:36.2	Whereas chemotherapy provides a very specific guidance on figuring out what one's issues are and how to help them.

1:50.6	have novice graduate students analyze themselves and their family of origin, their childhood,
