> 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 believe the parent poster is saying that CBT is the only form of therapy you can trust an LLM to pull off because it's straightforward to administer.

Computerised CBT is even already being delivered and by quite a bit less sophisticated systems than LLMs. Resourcing constraints have made it very popular in the UK.

In that case, the questionable statement is the assumption that a LLM can pull off any form of therapy at all.
