On our path to freedom we stumble upon an invisible limiting force. That force is often an irrational belief. A limiting belief, a negative belief.

That is the thing that is keeping you from moving forward. Like the hand break in the car it can keep showing up. It can keep tripping you in ways that leave you feeling baffled. And with zero progress.

This invisible force, you feel it, yet so often you are unable to understand what it is.

Would you like to uncover what is lurking in the shadows. Which beliefs keep you from being you?

This episode is all things REBT (Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy). Our guest, Emily Remo, M.A., discusses the differences and similarities of CBT and REBT. She also shows us how to use REBT in session and illustrates how it can be uplifting. Emily demonstrates ways to use client statements, like should or must, to segue into REBT work and provides psychoeducation on the ABCs of REBT. Plus, Emily shows us how to teach the ABCs to clients. Finally, we wrap this episode up with some tips and tricks for doing family therapy through telehealth. REBT has been used to treat disorders that, we as clinicians, encounter often, including Depression and Anxiety, and REBT provides clients with skills that they can continue using long after therapy has ended. This is a 2 part podcast, and in the second part, Emily gives us some tips for using telehealth in family therapy.
