CBT will improve the cognitive and perceptive parameters of a person. IQ can be improved later as he can do best out of his heditary and environmental factors.
Ruling out the cause of failure is utmost important at this juncture.
It needs to be treated asap otherwise it may get complicated.
It can be well treated with counseling sessions, CBT therapy and medication if required.

IQ should be measured first and at the same time you need to look other weak areas (like ADHD). Yes CBT is helpful and it will look what are areas bcz of which he is failing, and to me CBT will have affect on career performance.

Hi... No, it doesn't. But it can help enhance his performance by helping him overcome the issues that weigh him down.
CBT is one among the various therapeutic approaches/techniques that help people identify and change their destructive thought patterns, emotions, and behaviours in order to change their own approach towards different things in life (personal, academic, professional, social, etc.).
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist.
CBT along with Motivational Counselling and Lifestyle Guidance is required.

Hi,
Thank you for this question. Would like to know how old is your son. There are multiple reasons why people face career failures. CBT, career counselling and other forms of psychotherapy can help your son discover his area of expertise and interest. Therapy will also help boost confidence and self esteem of the individual.
Please note IQ can't be changed.
