> absolutely rubbish as a therapist unless it uses basic CBT concepts

I assume that CBT = "Cognitive Behavioural Therapy" ?

It seems that you're saying that a therapist will be "rubbish unless they use basic Cognitive Behavioural Therapy concepts" ? i.e. that this is the only valid approach to therapy?

I don't think that this is true at all.

But I do agree that a LLM that is basically "echo-chamber as a service" and will supply confirmation bias, but never push you even a single step out of your comfort zone. And this is useless for therapy. Absolutely pointless and counterproductive. It is not any of the valid approaches.
