It isn't, necessarily, the best solution for everyone anyway.
CBT is based on challenging negative thoughts, assuming that those thoughts are manufactured or, at least, grossly exaggerated. That kinda puts you in a corner if those thoughts are factual.
ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) has more recent science behind it and gives you strategies on how to minimize the effect of unhelpful thoughts, factual or not.
