A Therapist’s Manual for Cognitive Behavior Therapy in Groups

Overview

One of the great advantages of rational-emotive therapy (RET) and cog­ nitive behavior therapy (CBT) is that they frequently employ psycho­ educational methods-including bibliotherapy, workshops, lectures, courses, recordings, and films. I created RET at the beginning of 1955 after I had abandoned the practice of psychoanalysis because I found it to be highly inefficient and philosophically superficial. Being almost addicted to one-to-one therapy as a result of my analytic training and experience, I at first did RET only with individual clients and found this pioneering form of CBT considerably more effective than the other ther­ apies with which I had experimented. By 1957, however, I realized that RET could be taught to large num­ bers of persons through self-help books and articles and that RET -ori­ ented writings could not only prove valuable to the general public but that they could also be successfully employed to hasten and intensify the therapy of my individual clients. I therefore wrote a number of RET self­ help books-especially How to Live with a Neurotic (1957), Sex without Guilt (1958), A New Guide to Rational Living (with Robert A. Harper; original edition, 1961), and A Guide to Successful Marriage (with Robert A. Harper, 1961).
