Schema Therapy Institute 
Cleveland
 

The Schema Therapy Institute Cleveland was founded in 2010 to provide training and supervision in individual, group, and child-adolescent Schema Therapy. The training programs provided here are approved by the International Society of Schema Therapy to meet the requirements for international certification as a standard or advanced level schema therapist and supervisor-trainers.

Joan and Ida are both advanced-level schema therapists and certified trainer-supervisors in individual and group Schema therapy. Ida is also an advanced-level schema therapist and supervisor trainer in Child-Adolescent Schema Therapy.

Up until 2020, Joan & Ida traveled to provide in-person training in 24 countries. During the COVID pandemic, we moved all training to the online format of Zoom. We plan to continue online training and supervision as we move into our 70s, as it is just not as easy or fun to travel internationally, and our 4 Yorkies, born during the stay-at-home orders, will not let us out of the house. However, Joan occasionally escapes to London and other European sites to train in person. This information will always be on our website.

In 2024, we moved to the Cleveland, Ohio area, thus the change in our name.  We plan to continue our ZOOM training and supervision from our new location.
