I have to write a psychology essay about Social Anxiety Disorder. To be more specific, I have to review research that explores whether or not the evidence base supports the use of CBT with Social Anxiety Disorder. And I have to provide a balanced/fair review of the existing research. So then would it be a good idea two write about two pros and cons of CBT in SAD? Or would you do something else?

Follow-up Question

I have found plenty of peer-reviewed research papers about the long-term improvements of CBT in SAD, barriers to treatment/involvement of patients, and improvement of emotion regulation skills.
