My T is an integrative relational body psychotherapist. Which means he combines elements of different approaches; he believes the relationship that occurs between client and therapist is key to the therapy; and the body part is about awareness of the links between body and mind, trauma being stored in the body, etc.

The relational part is really important to me. It's about the therapist bringing themself to the process which I don't think is part of CBT. I don't know how CBT works or if you can tell your T anything but that's something to ask. Personally I knew I didn't want CBT as I needed something deeper and more long-term.
Thanks for this!
