Schema therapy identifies three modes - the healthy adult mode, the vulnerable child mode, and the coping/maladaptive modes. The healthy adult mode thinks rationally and is able to cope well. The vulnerable child mode consists of feelings and beliefs from childhood. The coping/maladaptive modes develop to help the individual cope with difficult emotions and situations, but can become dysfunctional.
