Thanks for posting, I didn't think I'd get a response!

>>I see no overlap between cognitive and behaviorists. Behaviorists are "you are what you do", and cognitive is overcoming faulty thinking. Albert Ellis and Aaron Beck see a distinction between "who you are" and "what you do".
I'm not really sure what you mean here. I'm aware of the distinction between pure behavioral therapy and cognitive therapy. But most CBT is a blend of the two. CBT is also somewhat of a successor to behavioral therapy. I think most CBT therapists still employ behavioral techniques (e.g. exposure), but also use cognitive restructuring-like techniques as the "core" treatment.
Best,
Matt
