Hey All, I was hoping to generate some answers to this following question.

Because the Cognitive Behavioural Model focuses on principles that behaviour is a result of one's thoughts. In simple terms, to modify one's behaviour, you must modify the way they think.

Saying all that, would it be more common for patients of this therapy to be prescribed more medication ie seroquel, triazadone, etc?

I think it would depend on the situation. If a therapist was finding that the underlying condition was interfering the patient's ability to do the CBT work then it is likely they might recommend medication to try to ease the effects of the condition so that person might be able to do the CBT.

It probably also depends on the route a patient took to get that treatment. If they arrive at this form of treatment from MDs (psychiatrists, GPs) then I think they are more likely to be put on medication than if they go to a psychologist or social worker etc.
