Question 2

Amara has been feeling extremely low and hopeless since starting her new job as a junior software developer. She believes she is completely inadequate at coding, that her colleagues secretly despise her for being slow, and that her career is permanently ruined. As a result, she has stopped attending team social events and avoids asking for help, despite her manager recently praising her attention to detail in a code review.

Describe how cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) could be used to help Amara.
