CONS of CBT
While some people find CBT helpful, others dislike it, feeling they are being talked out of their emotions. Some find that CBT’s focus on positive thinking feels too superficial to them, minimizing the importance of their personal history. Others find they don’t like the way CBT downplays emotions while seemingly overemphasizing the logical and thought-oriented components of one's mental life. Still others find they don’t get the results they desire with CBT and find that while psychodynamic therapy is more of an investment, it is more effective for them.
