I have always liked CBT very much. How to process things better and look at things from a healthier perspective is a good thing. I don't think you need much therapy to learn and practice it. You can learn it on your own for that matter.

I don't think it has helped my depression so much but it may have I dunno. I don't think my depression is caused by faulty thinking I think it is the other way around. I think my depression causes faulty thinking and once I am deep in it CBT helps with fear of the future and anxiety but not really the depression. I can't think my way out of it.
