BY AYUB AND HARKAMALPREET AND HASSRET

2. Strengths
The cognitive model offers a useful approach to disorders like depression and anorexia. This is because it considers the role of thoughts and beliefs which are greatly involved in problems like depression.
Cognitive therapies have often succesfully treated depression, stress, and eating disorder.
It allows a person to take control and make a positive change to their behaviour

3. Weaknesses (good grammar is important here)

Cognitive therapies may take a long time and are costly
Work better with some conditions than with others
The person could feel he or she is to blame
