Cover Story: This case report documents the integration of schema therapy for a disaster relief worker who experienced symptom recurrence after initial PE therapy. The patient, a municipal employee in Fukushima, developed PTSD following the 2011 disaster. While PE therapy initially proved effective, symptoms re-emerged after his father's death in 2021. Schema therapy revealed how early life experiences influenced both trauma responses and professional coping patterns. Through 60 sessions, the therapy addressed key maladaptive schemas and a distinctive "armor mode" coping pattern. The treatment progressed through psychoeducation, trauma processing, and modification of coping patterns, leading to sustained improvement. This case suggests the value of schema therapy as a secondary intervention when trauma-focused treatments show limited sustained effects. View this paper
