Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT)
At Still Flowing Wellness, one of the modalities we offer is Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), a practical and empowering approach to emotional and behavioral well-being.
REBT, developed by Dr. Albert Ellis, focuses on identifying and changing irrational beliefs that lead to emotional distress and unhealthy behaviors. It is based on the principle that our thoughts about situations—not the situations themselves—determine how we feel and respond.
How Does REBT Work?REBT helps clients recognize and challenge irrational thought patterns that contribute to feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, or low self-esteem. These thoughts are replaced with healthier, rational beliefs, leading to more balanced emotions and constructive actions.
Key components of REBT include:
- Identifying irrational beliefs: Uncover deeply rooted thoughts like “I must be perfect” or “I can’t handle failure.”
- Challenging and disputing these beliefs: Examine whether these beliefs are logical, factual, or helpful.
- Adopting healthier thought patterns: Replace irrational beliefs with rational, empowering ones, leading to emotional resilience.
