Als mensen steeds met dezelfde persoonlijke problemen te maken krijgen in hun leven, is er sprake van een chronisch patroon. Vanuit de cognitieve therapie bezien gaat het daarbij om 'schema's' die in dit boek valkuilen worden genoemd. Elf van deze valkuilen worden door de auteurs behandeld door middel van inzichten en technieken uit verschillende psychotherapeutische disciplines. Na liefst vier voorwoorden opent het boek met een overzicht van de elf valkuilen (onder andere verlatingsangst, extreme aanpassing en emotionele verwaarlozing). Er zijn drie inleidende hoofdstukken over het ontstaan, de stijlen en de veranderbaarheid van valkuilen. Dan volgen elf hoofdstukken over even zovele valkuilen. Per hoofdstuk wordt beschreven hoe je uit een valkuil kunt komen en wat de obstakels kunnen zijn. Het boek sluit af met een korte beschouwing over hoe lastig het kan zijn voor mensen om te veranderen en hoe je een en ander kunt aanpakken. Een frisse, niet-dogmatische kijk op therapie.
