14. Therapy should consist of a process of co-investigation, or collaborative
empiricism, as a way to uncover and examine faulty interpretations.

15. As a basic prerequisite to behavior change, clients need to notice how they
think, feel, and behave and the impact they have on others.
16. Therapy involves helping clients become aware of their self-talk and the stories
they tell about themselves.
17. Much of the therapy process consists of teaching clients more effective coping
skills in the sessions.
18. In stress management training it is essential to teach clients how they contribute
to their stress and also specifi c coping strategies for effectively dealing
with stress.

OVERVIEW: RATIONAL EMOTIVE BEHAVIOR THERAPY AND
COGNITIVE THERAPY
Key Figures and Major Focus
Founders: Albert Ellis is the founder of rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) and is
the grandfather of the other cognitive behavioral approaches. Aaron Beck is the founder of,
and key spokesperson for, cognitive therapy (CT). Another key fi gure in the development
of cognitive therapy and teaching this approach is Judith Beck. Donald Meichenbaum is
a pioneer in cognitive behavior modifi cation and his cognitive behavioral approach combines
some of the best elements of behavior therapy and cognitive therapy.
A highly didactic, cognitive behavior-oriented approach, REBT stresses the role of action
and practice in combating irrational, self-indoctrinated ideas. It focuses on the role
of thinking and belief systems as the roots of personal problems. Beck’s CT shares with
REBT the active, directive, time-limited, present-centered, structured approach used to
treat various disorders such as depression, anxiety, and phobias. It is an insight-focused
therapy that emphasizes recognizing and changing negative thoughts and maladaptive
beliefs. Meichenbaum’s cognitive behavioral approach suggests that it may be easier and
more effective to behave our way into a new way of thinking, than to think our way into a
new way of behaving.
Originally called behavior therapy, the more contemporary term cognitive behavior
therapy (CBT) was introduced in the mid-1970s as therapists began emphasizing the interaction
among behavioral, cognitive, and affective dimensions. Contemporary CBT is a
blend of cognitive and behavioral concepts and techniques.
Philosophy and Basic Assumptions
REBT assumes that thinking, evaluating, analyzing, questioning, doing, practicing, and
redeciding are at the base of behavior change. REBT is a didactic and directive model.
Therapy is a process of reeducation. The cognitive behavioral approaches are based on the
assumption that a reorganization of one’s self-statements will result in a corresponding
reorganization of one’s behavior.
Like REBT, cognitive therapy rests on the premise that cognitions are the major determinants
of how we feel and act. CT assumes that the internal dialogue of clients plays
