Generic "I do whatever" kind of stuff is best suited for those who have no diagnosable disorder; those who have problems along the lines of "I don't like to go to work on Mondays!" For those of us with a specific disorder, I honestly think it's best to find someone who specializes in the type (or few types) of therapy that works well in treating your specific issue. A therapist who cherry picks pretty much means they have a shallow knowledge of many types of therapy and I need someone with in depth knowledge. There's a reason why certain skills, activities, etc fall under the same type of therapy.....they are proven to work well together. Cherry picking from many therapies offers little consistency and continuity. (Coupled with the fact that differing therapies oftentimes clash, i.e. CBT vs ACT.)
