What is Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT)?
Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) is a therapeutic approach developed by Albert Ellis that focuses on identifying and changing irrational beliefs that lead to negative emotions and behaviors. In REBT, individuals learn to replace these beliefs with rational and positive thoughts, improving emotional responses and decision-making. REBT is commonly used to treat mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, and addiction.
By changing thought patterns, REBT helps individuals build resilience, self-acceptance, and healthier coping mechanisms.
