Don't forget that a big part of the success of treatment is the 'corrective emotional experience' with our therapist. i have this idea that a therapist who is hooked on the cbt approach might be too quick to jump in with some 'interventions', when all you need is for her to hear you and allow you the space to be. I have found that often when my t just allowed me to sit with my feelings I was then able to deal with them better. Telling me how to change my thinking goes against the idea of sitting with our feelings and let them ride the wave. Forgive me if i'm not making sense as it is long past my bedtime.
