hi lynn,
i think my ex T, who was a CBT psychologist, used to say 40% genetics 60% environment. He really believed in reframing, "reasonable risk taking", you know a lot of the cognitive kind of stuff, but I think you really have to work out the past issues along with, or before you can do some of the cognitive stuff. So much of what we went through plays out in our heads day after day, holding us back because of the negative tapes. We can fight that, but we still need therapy to undo a lot of the damage, and I just don't think you can do that with CBT, just my opinion.
