"Drs. Matweychuk and Dryden have written a great book, which will not only explain the theory and principles of REBT, but will also help the reader DO REBT to help others. This is a great introduction to REBT, which will help any psychotherapist."
Raymond DiGiuseppe, PhD, ABPP, Director of Professional Education, Albert Ellis Institute, Professor of Psychology, St. John's University
"An elegantly tailored presentation of state-of-the-art REBT, lucid, succinct, and readily fitted to a wide range of problems in therapy and in life. Readers of other CBT literatures may be challenged and inspired by the frank philosophical approach to hardship and adversity."
Ruth L. Greenberg, Ph.D., Diplomate and Certified CBT Therapist, Founding Fellow, Academy of Cognitive Therapy
"This is an invaluable guide to the basic principles and strategies of Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT). It is elegantly and clearly written as it describes, through the ABC model, how our unhelpful thoughts lead to distressing unhealthy negative emotions and unhelpful behaviour. It goes on to show how these unhelpful thoughts can be changed to enable individuals to lead constructive, happier lives. This model works well in the therapeutic or coaching arena. It is an ideal resource for trainees or those wishing to incorporate REBT into their therapeutic or coaching practices."
Nicola Martin MSc - Founder of City CBT, Cognitive Behavioural Coaching College, London
The book details the numerous helpful contributions that the author has made over the years - all of which have added to the efficacy of REBT...It is a 'must read' for all those who practise REBT and I would suggest equally important for those who don't practise REBT but are interested in helping people.
