Chapter10: Cognitive Behavior Therapy
Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT)
Stresses thinking, judging, deciding, analyzing, and doing
Assumes that cognitions, emotions, and behaviors interact and have a reciprocal cause-and-effect relationship
Is highly didactic, very directive, and concerned as much with thinking as with feeling
Teaches that our emotions stem mainly from our beliefs, evaluations, interpretations, and reactions to life situations
View of Human Nature
We are born with a potential for both rational and irrational thinking
We are self-talking, self-evaluating, and self-sustaining.
We have an inborn tendency toward growth and actualization
We learn and invent disturbing beliefs and keep ourselves disturbed through our self-talk
We have the capacity to change our cognitive, emotive, and behavioral processes
View of Emotional Disturbance
We learn irrational belief from significant other during childhood
Teach clients to feel undepressed even when they are epted and unloved by significant others.
Blame is at the core of most emotional disturbances
Irrational idea (., I must be loved by everyone) internalize  self-defeating
We have a tendency to make ourselves emotionally disturbed by internalizing self-defeating beliefs
