Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) aims to help individuals recognize and challenge irrational beliefs that drive emotional distress, facilitating the replacement of these beliefs with rational alternatives.
Ellis believed the emotional responses are not solely a product of external events but significantly influenced by personal interpretations and beliefs about those events.
The ABCDE model outlines the process: A is the triggering event, B is the belief about that event, C is the emotional response, D is challenging the irrational beliefs, and E shows the behavior change outcomes.
By highlighting negative thinking patterns, REBT focuses on transforming emotions of shame, guilt, and pity into constructive thought processes that aid in emotional regulation.
