Hundreds of thousands of patients have benefited from the active interventions of therapists using the REBT model. Major themes in this user-friendly manual: Theory of REBT, Practice of REBT, Cognitive Techniques, Emotive and Experiential Techniques, Behavioral Techniques, Integration of REBT with Other Therapies.
