RationalEmotive Counselling in Action - Counselling in Action series
Author: Windy Dryden

For counselors and counselors-in-training who are looking for a practical, well-written introduction to rational-emotive counseling, this volume is a must. This slim book examines the key elements of rational-emotive theory and practice, outlines the counseling sequence, and explores the counseling process as a whole (from start to finish of th... more »e counseling relationship). Throughout the book, a carefully selected case study is used to illustrate the rational-emotive approach and techniques. This study follows both client and counselor from the initial meeting through termination of the counseling process. Social workers, mental health professionals, clinical psychologists, and students will find this book of great value in their day-to-day work. "Provides excellent material for students, practitioners and trainers . . . . A valuable addition to an excellent series." --Counselling Psychology Review "The book is comprehensive and coherent. The reader will be impressed with a case study which is illustrative of the theory from the first meeting and problem assessment to the termination. . . . [It] would be beneficial to students in an introduction to counseling theory course and to counselors who are already in practice but want to familiarize themselves with the principles of a different approach." --The Journal of Applied Rehabilitation Counseling "A clear and concise exposition of practice as well as theory. Dryden is to be congratulated on the clarity of his style in producing a very readable book that will be of value to students and others interested in cognitive-behavioral therapies. In the space of remarkably few pages he manages to convey essential information about the stages and process of therapy, with examples and advice about dealing with common obstacles to progress. I thoroughly recommend it." --Behaviour Research Therapy "This must be the most effective exposition of the basic tenets of rational-emotive therapy (RET) ever written. . . . An excellent discussion of appropriate and inappropriate feelings follows. . . . The case examples are models of clarity and show Dryden to be an excellent technician. . . . This is a little gem of a book." --British Journal of Medical Psychology "This book offers a useful introduction to rational-emotive counselling for those who wish to learn more about an effective style of counselling as well as those who are familiar with another counselling approach but with to see how the ideas of this method could help them in their work." --Occupational Health "As the creator of RET, I have probably read more books dealing with its theory and practice than has anyone else. Of all these books, Windy Dryden's is easily one of the best. In a remarkably concise and yet quite adequate way he has distilled most of the main principles and methods of RET into a small, highly practical, and exceptionally readable volume. Any counsellor or therapist who wants to know what RET is really about and to start applying it in his or her own practice will find this book unusually useful and valuable." Albert Ellis, Institute for Rational-Emotive Therapy, New York City, British Journal of Guidance and Counselling
