Rational Emotive Behaviour Group Therapy

This is the first book devoted to group therapy applications of Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT). REBT is an active-directive, psychoeducational approach to psychotherapy and as such it is very well suited to being practised with groups. This book shows the range of these applications from regular group therapy to specialised group interventions such as nine hour intensives and Albert Elliss famous Friday Night Workshop. Also featured are chapters on a brief, group-based, structured educational approach to teaching unconditional self-acceptance using REBT and the use of the group in training and supervising REBT therapists in training.

Windy Dryden, BSc, DipPsych, MSc, PhD, C Psychol, is Professor of Counselling at Goldsmiths College, University of London. He is the editor or author of over 125 books in the area of counselling and psychotherapy. His primary interests are rational emotive behaviour therapy and disseminating its theory and techniques to the general public, through writing short, accessible, self-help books.
