Book Description

December 15, 2002 0878224785 978-0878224784 2nd
The authors have recently updated this concise, systematic guide on Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). They discuss rational versus irrational thinking, the ABC framework, the three basic musts that interfere with rational thinking and behavior, two basic biological tendencies, two fundamental human disturbances, and the theory of change in REBT. A detailed case example that includes verbatim dialogue between therapist and client illustrates the 18-step REBT treatment sequence. An appendix by Albert Ellis examines the special features of REBT.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Skills Book, August 30, 2009
This review is from: A Primer on Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy (Paperback)
I'm not a therapist, and you don't have to be to benefit from this book. It's a true "Primer" in the sense that it has all the essentials in a condensed format. If you have to live or work with people who drive you crazy these are essential skills to learn and use. Great stuff. Let the healing begin!

This book was quick and easey to read. It really allowed me to get the basics of RET. Windy has a very nice style of writing and the book is broken down into steps which is very helpful.
