- People who are looking for a deep exploration of childhood issues
CBT focuses more on current thought patterns than deep emotional exploration.
- Those who struggle with commitment to homework and exercises
Other therapies may be more suitable if practicing new skills outside of sessions feels exhausting.
- Individuals with severe trauma who need emotional processing first
Trauma-focused therapy, like EMDR, may be a better starting point.
- People with cognitive impairments that affect thinking and reasoning
Alternative therapies may be more helpful if engaging in thought analysis is difficult.
It’s a great option if you want a structured, skill-based therapy that helps you manage thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
