Albert Ellis. Rational-Emotive Therapy Applied to Groups

Description

In this video interview with John Whiteley, Albert Ellis discusses the use of rational emotive psychotherapy in a group setting. He considers the greater risk to the individual in the area of self-disclosure, as well as the better potential for a clearer understanding of the individual's personal activity or response to the therapy, explaining that an individual can avoid the truth with a counselor, but that groups create a different dynamic and bring out different responses. Ellis discusses the advantages of RET, defines the role and training of the group leader, and presents the use of exercises.
