About this book

Jeffrey Young is the clinical psychologist who developed schema therapy as an extension of cognitive behavioral therapy, designed to address the deeper, longer-running patterns that standard CBT sometimes can't reach. Reinventing Your Life is the book that introduced his approach to a general audience, written with Janet Klosko.

The book identifies eleven specific lifetraps, the recurring patterns that develop in childhood and shape adult relationships, work, and self-concept. Each gets a chapter with exercises designed to surface where the pattern came from and start the work of shifting it.

The writing is clear without being condescending. The case studies feel real because they were drawn from real practice.

For readers who have done basic CBT and want something deeper, or who recognize themselves in the same recurring failures across different situations, this book is one of the strongest popular psychology books of its kind.
