Key information you should know

  • REBT focuses on identifying and changing irrational thoughts that lead to negative emotions and behaviours.
  • It empowers clients to take responsibility for their emotional responses and life choices.
  • This therapy helps individuals develop a more rational mindset, leading to healthier behaviours and improved emotional well-being.
  • REBT is a type of cognitive behavioural therapy that helps individuals identify irrational beliefs, challenge them, and replace them with more rational, balanced thoughts. According to REBT, emotional distress and dysfunctional behaviours are often a result of rigid, unrealistic beliefs about oneself, others, or the world. By addressing these beliefs, REBT enables individuals to change their emotional responses and adopt healthier, more adaptive behaviours. REBT is particularly effective for treating anxiety, depression, and other emotional disturbances by helping clients build more flexible, rational thinking patterns.

    REBT uses techniques such as cognitive restructuring, self-monitoring, and behavioural experiments to help clients identify and modify irrational beliefs, improving emotional regulation and problem-solving skills.

    At the Institute for Healthy Living, our skilled therapists are trained in REBT to help clients create healthier, more balanced thought patterns and achieve lasting emotional well-being.
