Definition:
Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) is a form of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Its foundation is the belief that it is not the events in a person's life that causes emotions, but it is a person's beliefs that cause them to experience emotions such as anger, depression, and anxiety. It is a mode to consider and change irrational beliefs and has shown to have a favorable effect on reducing emotional pain.
