This book by Albert Ellis offers a practical guide to controlling anxiety through Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). It explains how unrealistic expectations can generate unnecessary anxiety and provides tools to develop a healthy attitude of concern, caution, and vigilance. The author distinguishes between healthy anxiety, which protects and preserves life, and unhealthy anxiety, which leads to panic and phobias.
Following the principles of REBT, the reader will learn to identify and modify the thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, allowing them to enjoy a fuller life free from paralyzing worries. This work is ideal for those seeking to improve their emotional well-being and face daily challenges with greater serenity.
Albert Ellis was an American psychologist and psychotherapist who founded rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT). He held MA and PhD degrees in clinical psychology from Columbia University, and was certified by the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP). He also founded, and was the President of, the New York City-based Albert Ellis Institute. He is generally considered to be one of the originators of the cognitive revolutionary paradigm shift in psychotherapy and an early proponent and developer of cognitive-behavioral therapies.
