Don't discount CBT. It is a very successful therapy. It works really well for a lot of people. People on this board - at this point in time - tend to be more psychodynamically oriented. But it hasn't always been that way. When I started at Babble, we discussed CBT a lot (and people didn't really know what psychodynamic therapy was).

Talk about your concerns with this therapist. Make sure you let him know that you have issues that you haven't talked about (and if you can - just give him a one word summary???) so that he can better assess whether he can help you.

The therapist and his relationship with the patient is more important that the type of therapy that is done. Keep an open mind.

Good luck! I'm so glad that you feel that you can bring this kind of stuff up and talk about it. That (I believe) gives you a better prognosis.
