This is a presentation regarding Albert Ellis' REBT. Ellis' model teaches us to dispute irrational beliefs and replace them with rational ones to experience effective change.
Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) is a type cognitive therapy first used by Albert Ellis which focuses on resolving emotional and behavioral problems. The goal of the therapy is to change irrational beliefs to more rational ones.
REBT encourages a person to identify their general and irrational beliefs (e.g. I must be perfect") and subsequently persuades the person to challenge these false beliefs through reality testing.

Person-centred therapy, also known as person-centred or client-centred counselling, is a humanistic approach that deals with the ways in which individuals perceive themselves consciously, rather than how a counsellor can interpret their unconscious thoughts or ideas.
The core purpose of person-centred therapy is to facilitate our ability to self-actualise - the belief that all of us will grow and fulfil our potential. This approach facilitates the personal growth and relationships of a client by allowing them to explore and utilise their own strengths and personal identity. The counsellor aids this process, providing vital support to the client and they make their way through this journey.
Brief therapy, sometimes also referred to as short term therapy (usually 10 to 20 sessions) , is a generic label for any form of therapy in which time is an explicit element in treatment planning.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease Case Study The patien.docxannettsparrow
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Case Study
The patient is an 11-year-old girl who has been complaining of intermittent right lower
quadrant pain and diarrhea for the past year. She is small for her age. Her physical
examination indicates some mild right lower quadrant tenderness and fullness.
Studies Results
Hemoglobin (Hgb), 8.6 g/dL (normal: >12 g/dL)
Hematocrit (Hct), 28% (normal: 31%-43%)
Vitamin B12 level, 68 pg/mL (normal: 100-700 pg/mL)
Meckel scan, No evidence of Meckel diverticulum
D-Xylose absorption, 60 min: 8 mg/dL (normal: >15-20 mg/dL)
120 min: 6 mg/dL (normal: >20 mg/dL)
Lactose tolerance, No change in glucose level (normal: >20 mg/dL rise in
glucose)
Small bowel series, Constriction of multiple segments of the small intestine
Diagnostic Analysis
The child's small bowel series is compatible with Crohn disease of the small intestine.
Intestinal absorption is diminished, as indicated by the abnormal D-xylose and lactose
tolerance tests. Absorption is so bad that she cannot absorb vitamin B12. As a result, she has
vitamin B12 deficiency anemia. She was placed on an aggressive immunosuppressive
regimen, and her condition improved significantly. Unfortunately, 2 years later she
experienced unremitting obstructive symptoms and required surgery. One year after surgery,
her gastrointestinal function was normal, and her anemia had resolved. Her growth status
matched her age group. Her absorption tests were normal, as were her B12 levels. Her
immunosuppressive drugs were discontinued, and she is doing well.
Critical Thinking Questions
1. Why was this patient placed on immunosuppressive therapy?
2. Why was the Meckel scan ordered for this patient?
3. What are the clinical differences and treatment options for Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s
Disease? (always on boards)
4. What is prognosis for patients with IBD and what are the follow up recommendations for
managing disease?

Adier's Need to Belong as the Key for Mental Health
Rachel Shifron
Abstract
According to Adier's (1932) Individual Psychology the inability to belong or to
connect with others results in pathology. In this essay the author presents several
case studies that highlight the need to belong as a primary issue in therapy. The case
descriptions include therapy with an individual, a couple, a client with addiction
issues, a cross-cultural couple, and a mother and daughter-in-law. The case materi-
als presented in this article reveal that individuals with psychological disorders can
lessen their psychopathology by learning more effective methods to promote belong-
ing. Adlerian methods and interventions to promote belonging are discussed.
In Adier's (1932, 1991) Individual Psychology every child is born with
the need to belong and with the ability to connect with others. Acquiring
the methods of connecting involves a learning process. This kind of learning
is the key for well-being. It is essential that one belongs and is connected
to three significant groups in one's circle of life. I expand Adier's descrip-
tion of the life tasks (Dreikurs, 1950) to refer to these significant groups as
being family, friends, and work associates. Feeling a sense of belonging to
these groups is the primary universal issue of mental health. Individuals with
psychological disorders can lessen their psychopathology by learning more
effective methods to belong.
This article reflects my many years of counseling and therapy from an
Individual Psychology perspective (Shifron, 2006, 2008). My clinical experi-
ences have shown me the universality of the need to belong, and I believe
this paper offers an exceptional opportunity for clinicians from different
theoretical approaches to learn more about Adier's optimistic and brilliant
perspective. Adier's Individual Psychology is based on the conceptualization
that psychopathology results from the lack of feeling belonging. This is an
optimistic view, because the absence of feeling belonging is a curable situ-
ation. According to Adier's theory (Ferguson, 2006), every individual makes
choices. In this paper I focus on the belief that every individual is capable
and creative and that by making different kinds of choices, each person can
learn how to feel belongi ...

Psychodynamic theories are views that describe personality based on conscious and unconscious forces. Personality is the difference in an individual that makes the person have distinctive behavior, patterns of thought and feeling. Personality lends consistency to the character of an individual. The character of a person is shaped by both the environmental and hereditary forces (Matthews, G. et al., 2009). Personality mostly focuses on two broad area. These are understanding discrete differences in a particular trait of a personality such as sociability or irritability, and understanding the way different parts of an individual are joined as a whole.
Famous theorists did work on the psychodynamic theories where they tried to explain the concept of personality. The leading theorists were Sigmund Freud, Alfred Adler, and Erik Erikson. Every theory focuses on explaining nature and the process of a character. The Object Relations Theory is also included in the group of personality theories. The theories perform psychoanalysis, a therapy that tries to disclose unconscious desires and thoughts. All psychologists do not accept psychodynamic theories. The theories have been criticized because of their lack of scientific data to support them.
Freud’s theory:
In this theory, Freud points out that personality includes ego, id, and the super-ego. He said that these three parts worked with each other to create the human character. The id makes a person to be responsible for seeking pleasure and instincts. The superego makes an individual to try to obey the rules of the elders and the society while the ego acts as a mediator between the id and superego on the basis of the demands of reality (Borden, W., 2009). For example, id makes people want food, the ego assists people in looking for a reasonable way to get food, and the superego holds the individual’s morality. According to Freud, the personality of a person is driven by id, superego, and ego.
Strengths and weaknesses:
The theory had both strengths and limitations. Let’s start with the advantages. One, the theory provides a broad framework for the description of the personality of persons. This approach was considered to have power in its explanation. However, it had limitations. Its major problem was that it was not scientifically valid. For example, the theory can help in explaining causes of an abnormality like a child trauma; however, it lacks research evidence to support it. The ideas of Freud were based mostly on his subjective analysis.
Adler’s theory:
Adler came up with the first holistic personality theory. His theory was connected to a humanistic philosophy of living. In his worker, he revealed an uncommon understanding of mental disorders and a big inspiration for.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

5. In 1956, at the APA annual convention,
Ellis gave his 1st
paper on RATIONAL
THERAPY, his term then for REBT.
Ellis regretted using the term
RATIONAL THERAPY, because many
psychologists misinterpreted it as
meaning therapy without emotion.
6. originally called
Rational Therapy
soon changed to
Rational-Emotive
Therapy
In the early 1990’s
changed to Rational

Therapy (Frogatt, 2005)

9. Individuals respond to an
activating event (A) with
emotional and behavioral
consequences (C).
The emotional and
behavioral consequences are
not only caused by the
activating event but by the
individual’s BELIEF
SYSTEM (B).
10. IRRATIONAL BELIEFS (B)
often cause difficult
emotional and behavioral
consequences (C).
11. Individuals’ problems
(emotional , behavioral
consequences) stem
not only from
activating events but
from their beliefs
about such events

16. Hedonism – seeking pleasure and
avoiding pain
This view does not lead to irresponsible
behavior, because individuals with a
responsible attitude toward hedonism
think through the consequences of
their behavior.
17. Ellis believes that individuals should be
accepted for themselves, a concept similar
to Carl Rogers’ “Unconditional Positive
Regard” (Ellis & Dryden, 1997; Ziegler, 2003)
Ellis believes that individuals preferably
should have Unconditional Self Acceptance
(USA).
They should accept that they make mistakes,
that they have worth, and that some of their
own assets are stronger than other assets
that they or others possess.
18. It refers to people using
efficient, flexible , logical,
and scientific ways of
attempting to achieve their
values and goals (Ellis, 2005).
Therapy with REBT shows
individuals how they can get
more of what they want from
life by being rational.
20. Ellis (cited in Sharf,
2008) believes that
certain severe mental
disturbances are
partly inherited and
have strong biological
components.
21. Individuals are likely
to define themselves
as good or
worthwhile,
depending on how
they see others
reacting to them.
22. Examples of Irrational Beliefs (Ellis cited
in Sharf, 2008):
Irrational Beliefs About
Competence and Success –
“Because I strongly desire to get A’s in
all subjects, I “must” get all A’s at all
times and do perfectly well.”
23. Irrational Beliefs about Love and
Approval - “Because I strongly desire
to be loved by Sarah, I absolutely
“must” always have her approval.”
24. Irrational Beliefs about being
Treated Unfairly – “Because I
strongly desire Eric to treat me
considerately and fairly, he absolutely
“must” do so at all times and under all
conditions, because I am always
considerate and fair to him.
25. Irrational Beliefs about Safety
and Comfort – “Because I strongly
desire to have a safe, comfortable, and
satisfying life, I “ must” find life easy,
convenient, and gratifying at all times.
26. 3 categories of irrational beliefs
Dryden (1990) and Ellis (1991b cited in
Sharf, 2008)
1. Demands about self
2. Demands about others
3. Demands about the world and/or life
conditions
27. Musturbation – the term for all
types of must statements
Low frustration tolerance-
individuals who cannot tolerate
frustration easily are more likely
to be disturbed than those who can
(Harrington cited in Sharf, 2008).
28. Related to the concept of low
frustration tolerance to disturbance is
anxiety.
1.Discomfort Anxiety – individuals’
comfort level is threatened and they
must get what they want.
2.Ego Anxiety - individuals’ sense of
self worth is threatened and they feel
that they must perform well.
30. Clearer and more rational thinking
New philosophy of life that can make
the client feel more appropriately and
act more efficiently and effectively
( Villar, 2011).
31. Cognitions, emotions and behaviors that
create the problems and their underlying
themes
Here-and-now irrational ideas and their
accompanying self-verbalizations
(Ellis, 1974;1994 cited in Villar, 2011)
32. A = represents the activating event
B = stands for irrational belief/s
C =represents the emotional and behavioral
consequences largely determined by the individual’s
beliefs about this event
D = stands for disputing the irrational beliefs
E = represents an effective rational outlook
accompanied by emotional and behavioral changes
34. The REBT Self-Help Form (Dryden,
Walker, and Ellis, 1996) – clients enter
their activating events and
consequences, help determine
important irrational beliefs.
Clients then dispute the irrational
beliefs that apply and replace them
with effective rational beliefs.
Such a form can have both diagnostic
and therapeutic purposes.
35. The A-B-C- assessment usually starts from
the beginning of the first session and
continues throughout the therapy.
Therapists listen while clients describe
feelings and behaviors (consequences that
they feel are caused by specific experiences
(activating events).
Therapists listen to the beliefs the clients
have about the activating event. (Bernard
cited in Sharf, 2008).
36. Millon Clinical MultiAxial Inventory II
Beck Depression Inventory
Frustration Discomfort Scale can be
used to distinguish self-esteem from
frustration intolerance
37. Ellis believes that the best way to
develop a therapeutic relationship is to
help solve the client’s immediate
problem (Ellis & Dryden, 1997).
Ellis identifies the activating events,
irrational beliefs, and emotional and
behavioral consequences (ABC).
Ellis may do this for 2 or 3 sessions
and then possibly work on larger
issues.
38. The relationship between client and
therapist is important in REBT.
With patient who are unfamiliar with
REBT, the therapist often introduces
the purpose of therapy.
When working with children,
therapists may proceed cautiously in
developing a relationship before
teaching REBT methods.
39.
40. 1. Coping Self Statements –
an individual who is afraid of
public speaking may write
down and repeat to himself
several times a day such as “ I
want to speak flawlessly,
but it is alright if I don’t,”
“No one is killed for a
poor speech,” and “I am
an articulate person.”
41. 2. Cost-Benefit analysis –
individuals who are addicted
to smoking may be asked to
make lists of the advantages
of stopping smoking and
disadvantages of continuing
smoking. They will think
seriously about these
advantages and
disadvantages 10 or 20 times
a day.
42. 3. Psychoeducational Methods –
listening to audio tapes that
teach the principles of REBT is
often recommended.
4. Teaching Others – persuading
others not to use irrational
beliefs can help the persuader
to learn more effective ways of
disputing her own irrational
beliefs.
43. 5. Problem Solving - by
helping people expand
their choices of what they
want to do and be, REBT
helps them choose
rational thoughts,
feelings and actions.
44.
45. 1. Imagery – imagining asking
a woman for a date, being
turned down, and working
on experiencing healthy
rather that unhealthy
negative emotions.
(Dryden and Ellis, 2001, 2003)
46. 2. Role Playing – repeated role
playing of the situation gives
the individual a chance to
feel better about her
social skills and change
inappropriate emotional
self statements (Ellis,
1986)
47. 3. Shame Attacking Exercise
– although the exercise can be
practiced in a therapy session,
it is done outside therapy.
Examples:
engaging strangers in
conversations
asking silly questions to
receptionist or teachers
48. 4. Forceful self-statements -
I f a client told himself that it
is awful and terrible to
get a C on an examination,
this self-statement can be
replaced by a forceful and
more suitable statement
such as “ I want to get an
A, but I don’t have to!”
(Dryden and Ellis, 2003)
49. 5. Forceful self-
dialogue
Arguing strongly and
vigorously against an
irrational belief has an
advantage over
therapist-client dialogue
since all of the
material comes from
the client.
50.
51. 1. Activity Homework
Examples:
Rather than quitting a
job, a client may work
with an unreasonable
boss and listen to their
unfair criticism but
mentally dispute the
criticism and not
accept the boss’
beliefs as her own.
53. 3. Skills Training
Example:
Assertiveness Training
Workshop/s can be
helpful for those who
are shy
workshops on
communication skills,
job interviewing skills
55. If you would get release and let your anger out,
Disrupt the blasted peace and scream and yell and shout,
Just go to any length to show you can’t be still,
And you’ll display enormous strength—until the time you’re killed!
Pound, pound, pound! Pound, pound, pound! Pound your enemies!
Oh what fun it is to stun anyone who does not please you!
Sock, sock, sock! Knock, knock, knock! Howl and whine and cry!
And everyone from you will run and hate you till you die!
Pout, pout, pout! Shout, shout, shout!—when things are a mess!
Rip, rip, rip! Slip, slip, slip into a profound depression!
Think, think, think! Drink, drink, drink only of cruel fate!
Keep your mind preoccupied with everyone you hate.

58. Not only does REBT stress
cognitive insight, but it
also emphasizes
emotional insight.
59. 1. Acknowledging that disturbances come not
only from the past but also from irrational
beliefs.
2. How individuals continually indoctrinate
themselves with the same kind of irrational
beliefs that originated in the past.
3. Accepting first 2 levels of insight with the
realization that knowledge of these insights
does not automatically change people.
60. Awareness of rational beliefs is not sufficient;
active challenging of irrational beliefs,
and development of rational beliefs,
using knowledge of the A-B-C theory of
personality is essential.
61. Individuals not only
have changed feelings,
thoughts and beliefs but
also know how they
have done so
and why
(Ellis, 2002; Ellis, 2003d cited in Sharf, 2008).
