Psychotherapy v. CBT

Posted by Snowie on May 19, 2000, at 17:01:26

There are many references on this and other BBSs to psychotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. Are there any differences between psychotherapy and CBT, and if so, what are they? Also, does anyone have a preference as to which works better for long-term anxiety and possible social phobia? I'm trying to figure out just where I belong in obtaining the best benefit from therapy, but I'm uncertain, and more than a little confused.
Also, it's a possibility that I may also suffer from ADD. Would therapy (either psychotherapy or CBT) help with that?
Thanks!
