Thank you for responding. :)
> A CBT therapist would probably take a here and now approach to trauma, if I understand it correctly. They would address the ways it's affecting your thoughts and behaviors today.
That is cool with me. I know what the big events are,so I don't need to examine to discover them, at least I don't think so.. lol! I do need to express what the events were and to discuss what that resulted in. Does that make sense? Will that fit into their "model."
> But only the CBT purists would stick completely to the CBT model if they think you need something else in any given area. Many of them introduce other elements into therapy.That sounds perfect! I really hope he is that way. I am so afraid to even ask because if he can't or won't address certain things then I am afraid he will tell me he can't work with me. :(
