Synopsis

This new edition provides a concise but systematic guide to the basics of REBT―a valuable approach for helping clients overcome emotional and behavioral difficulties. The authors have updated this practical resource to reflect recent developments in REBT theory and practice.

• Part I: Briefly outlines the principles considered central to an understanding of REBT.
• Part II: Details a sequence of 20 REBT steps recommended for use during peer counseling and clinical work.
• Part III: illustrates the application of the REBT process to a specific case.

The brief overview of REBT practice presented in this primer is designed to complement rather than replace comprehensive texts for conducting REBT at a more advanced level.
