I've tried lots of therapies for a long time too and I think there is value in CBT but I wouldn't want it to be the whole focus of things. I made this clear to my new T from the same agency. CBT theories originated from the training of animal and animal behaviorists and we are human beings..I think Carl neglected that aspect. Things don't always make a "clean break." Therapy can be a messy business...it's about human emotions!
Maybe pyschodynamic therapy goes on too long...but it feels more "real" to me.
