Depends: Weight issues are part for emotional comfort issues and part hidden food allergy. You need to address both to have a effective weight loss.

Yes. CBT is helpful: In addressing the emotional and behavioral aspects of weight loss. Sticking to a healthy diet, exercising, and having social support are also important. A good therapist can help you create a plan and follow it.
