This latest addition to the PCCS Books Primers in Counselling series offers a comprehensive introduction to rational emotive behaviour therapy (REBT). Developed by Albert Ellis in 1955 and subsequently further developed and refined, REBT is based on the principle that individuals are not disturbed by the adversities they face. Rather, they disturb themselves about these adversities by the rigid and extreme attitudes they hold towards them. REBT therapists aim to assist their clients in identifying, examining, and changing the rigid and extreme attitudes that underpin their emotional problems. They also work on developing alternative flexible and non-extreme alternative attitudes. Throughout the therapy process, the therapist guides the client in taking increasing responsibility for utilizing these methods, with the ultimate goal of empowering them to become their own therapists.

The book takes the reader step by step through these processes, culminating in a detailed transcription of a single session of REBT. It concludes with an outline of research on the effectiveness of REBT. Additionally, it includes helpful forms for use with clients and links to further resources.

By exploring the principles and techniques of REBT, this book provides a valuable resource for counsellors, psychologists, and mental health professionals seeking to enhance their understanding and effectiveness in helping clients overcome emotional challenges.
