Description

REBT, or Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy developed by Albert Ellis that focuses on identifying and challenging irrational beliefs and self-defeating thought patterns to reduce negative emotions and behaviors. It is an action-oriented therapy that uses models like the ABCDE model to help people recognize how their beliefs (B) lead to emotional and behavioral consequences (C) following an activating event (A). By replacing these irrational thoughts with rational ones, individuals can develop more constructive ways of thinking, feeling, and acting, leading to improved well-being.
