Overview

Trainee therapists often stick rigidly to the therapeutic guidelines that are taught to them on their training course, or adopted from a book, regardless of their approach. How to Think and Intervene Like an REBT Therapist provides the trainee with an opportunity to discover how experienced therapists think, and how their thoughts influence their interventions when using Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT). In this book, Windy Dryden compares the thinking and intervening characteristics of experienced REBT therapists with the actions of trainees making errors typical of people at an introductory level. By using clinical vignettes, case scenarios and verbatim dialogue, he demonstrates how REBT therapists can make better use of the working alliance between themselves, their clients and their trainees, and use REBT more flexibly in practice. This new edition is updated with modern language and examples to make it more user friendly and accessible for readers. New references and the citing of developments in theory bring the book up to date with advancements in the field and create greater flexibility for both therapist and client. This highly practical guide remains essential reading for all those who have recently been introduced to REBT.
