Discuss an explanation of how the use of CBT in groups compares to its use in the family or individual settings. Explain at least two challenges PMHNPs might encounter when using CBT in one of these settings. Support your response with specific examples from this week’s media and at least three peer-reviewed, evidence-based sources. Explain why each of your supporting sources is considered scholarly, and attach the PDFs of your sources.

Review the videos in this week’s Learning Resources and consider the insights provided on CBT in various settings.
