A Practitioners guide to Rational Emotive Therapy - Third Edition

Authors: Raymond A. DiGiuseppe, Kristene A. Doyle, Windy Dryden & WouterBackx

Extensively updated to include clinical findings over the last two decades, this third edition reviews the philosophy, theory and clinical practice of REBT.  This model is based on the work of Albert Ellis, who had an enormous influence on the field of psychotherapy over his 50 years of practice and scholarly writing.

Designed for both therapists-in-training and seasoned professionals, this practical treatment manual and guide introduces the basic principles of REBT, explains general therapeutic strategies, and offers many illustrative dialogues between therapist and patient.

The volume breaks down each stage of therapy to present the exact procedures and skills therapists need, and numerous case studies illustrate how to use these skills.

Intervention models are presented for the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, personality disorders, and addictions.
