Interesting, CBT is usually fairly short term, by definition. It is a relearning. I did not mean transference does not exist. CBT by it's nature is for changing thoughts that influence moods. As transference is the reestablishment or reliving of already established ways of relating to significant others it's role in CBT is very limited. Cognitive behavorial therapy as defined by Beck is usually effective within 1 year on learned responses. 8 1/2 years seems very long even for psychoanalysis, which is usually 5 years four or five times a week, although it can be longer. I'm sorry to hear that your T seems to be life long. I hope you work out your problems
