CBT emphasizes cognitive restructuring and present-focused skills training, while attachment-based interventions delve into relational history and emotional healing. Often CBT is the only modality new clinicians are equipped with when they begin their practice. As clinicians gain experience, many recognize that applying CBT protocols in real-life therapeutic settings is challenging and seek alternative approaches. This gives rise to “eclectic” approaches which involve attachment-based interventions, such as emotion-focused therapy (EFT) or dyadic developmental psychotherapy (DDP).
