This book explores rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT), an influential therapeutic approach developed by Albert Ellis in the 1950s. REBT is applied to a variety of psychological problems and focuses on how people create their own problems and what can be done about it. It offers a scientific method of rational thinking to help people reduce their emotional problems and lead a fuller, more satisfying life. In addition, it promotes a profound philosophical change in people, affecting their present and future emotions and behaviors.
Albert Ellis was an American psychologist and psychotherapist who founded rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT). He held MA and PhD degrees in clinical psychology from Columbia University, and was certified by the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP). He also founded, and was the President of, the New York City-based Albert Ellis Institute. He is generally considered to be one of the originators of the cognitive revolutionary paradigm shift in psychotherapy and an early proponent and developer of cognitive-behavioral therapies.
