I gave it a try a couple years ago and found it a little beneficial. Dr Richard's CBT combined with a group brought about more significant positive changes for me.
Everyone is different.

im sorry but you need to get your facts right before you comment on this subject becasue thinkrightnow addresses both the cognitive and behavioural portion of cbt not just the cognitive. when you use thinkrightnow your thoughts dramatically change and so does your behaviour
all behvaiours are run uncocniously. the behaviour of sa (avoidance etc..) all starts at the unconcious level. it starts with your unconcious beleifs being activated which results in you having automatic thoughts in your mind and leaves you in an anxious state. these thoughts plus the state you are in make you behave a certain way.
with thinkrightnow your old beleifs do not get activated anymore. instead the news ones, that thinkrightnow install in you, get activated and this leaves you in a new state with new automatic thoughts. these new thoughts and this new state make your behaviour automatically change and you find yourself enjoying doing things you used to hate doing and hating things you used to love doing
it is the same as cbt and it does work faster. a lot faster in fact. the root of sa is unconious beleifs. cbt aims to change those beleifs by conciously changing your thoughts and behaviour and chipping away at the beleifs. thinkrightnow has the same goal but goes about it in a different way. think rightnow directly changes those belefis at an unconcious level.
if you have a tree and you start at the top and saw of piece by peice eventually reaching the bottom you will get rid of the tree. but if you start at the bottom and just hack away the whole tree will fall.
whcih way is quicker and easier ? the latter. both reach the same outcome but one is faster and one is easier.
thinkrightnow is equivilent to the latter
