Wait, was it ever advertised as being able to heal it? Because I always knew that it's a coping mechanism.
What heals it is understanding where it comes from, psychosocially, and addressing it if possible.

That's one of the problems with phycology in general. Founders, and often even more the followers founders, believe their method is the best and the only one "good enough", while the approach should really be to use different teachings depending on the situation. For example: if it is true that cbt doesn't treat the root cause, it can still be really good. It might make you feel good enough to actually tackle the root course.
