I think that group CBT may be beneficial to the patient. CBT interventions are thought to be effective treatments because they target common cognitive and behavioral processes that are involved in the genesis and maintenance of psychopathology across illnesses (Titov et al., 2015). CBT focuses on faulty cognitions about oneself, the environment, and the future, as well as actions that contribute to or sustain symptoms. Problem-solving, customized case conceptualization, and collaborative empiricism are central to cognitive and behavioral treatments (Pearl & Norton, 2017). Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a psychological treatment technique that may be provided one-on-one and in groups and self-help forms. CBT groups provide ready-made conditions for behavioral experiments that challenge automatic thoughts and their underlying fundamental beliefs and assumptions. When members of a group see that other members have similar experiences, concerns, and emotional responses, it demonstrates that they are not alone in thinking and behaving the way they do. This may be a robust normalizing experience that aids in the reduction of related stigma and shame. Remarks made by one group member to another are sometimes taken as having greater significance than comments made by the therapist. This is most likely because the other group members are perceived as being more unbiased than the therapist. The connections inside the group must be as collaborative and non-threatening as possible for questions and ideas not to be regarded as assaulting and weakening the group's authority (Mewton et al., 2017).
