EvaluationCBT can work on two bases; inspired by Beck and his negative triad, or Ellis and his ABC model. Beck - The patient and therapist work together to see what is troubling the patients, with the pair then establishing where there may be irrational thoughts that would benefit from challenging. The patient takes an active role in challenging their thoughts, by testing the reality of the irrational beliefs. By doing the research themselves, the therapist is able to see if the patient is aware, but also helps them to produce evidence to disprove the patients belief. Ellis - rational emotive behaviour therapy (REBT) extends the ABC model to ABCDE; D is for dispute (challenging irrational beliefs) and E is for effect. A patient may be asked to talk about how unfair things are for them, etc.. with REBT identifying this as utopianism. |
