Role-Play Demonstration of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy jguterman - 10,437 views - 1 year ago
Miranda Howard (Therapist) and Jeffrey Guterman (Client) role-play a demonstration of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). In this role-play demonstration, the ABCDE model of REBT is illustrated. The client is a 50-year-old man experiencing an "existential" problem, feeling depressed at emotional Consequence (C) about the inevitability that someday he, like everyone else, will die, at Activating event (A). The therapist helps the client identify his irrational Belief at (iB), "I must never die!" Then, the therapist helps the client Dispute at (D) the irrational belief resulting in a new Effect (E) whereby the client is accepting the inevitability of death, and focusing on living and meaning.

***

Excerpt starting at 7:54

Therapist: You realize that the must might be the problem, for you Jeffrey, "that you must not die." Okay, because you already realize that we all die.

Client: yeah.

Therapist: We all die.

Client: Yeah.

Therapist: But there's something that you prefer to do instead of dying. And maybe we need to extract that.

Client: Live.

Therapist: But is it just living? Is it more than that for you? What is it that you want to hold on to?

Client: Oh, wow.

Therapist: That you want to continue doing?

Client: You see that's a good question.

Therapist: Thank you, Jeffrey. What's the answer.

Client: You see, I mean, that's a reason I would come here. You see, cause that's a question I wouldn't have thought of. You know what I'm saying?

Therapist: Yeah. I do.

Client: Um. You see, this is worth it. Uh, my time, and, you mean, uh, uh, I have to think about that. Uh. More than living. Living happily. Meaningfully.

Therapist: Meaningfully.

Client: Yeah. Yeah. Uh. Which makes me come back to what an awful disappointment it is to have to die. But, you know, I think that I need to, uh, accept that, you know, ultimately, that's the solution.

Therapist: Okay.

Client: Isn't it?

Therapist: Accept it.

Client: Accept it, but not like it.

Therapist: Okay.

Client: Right?

Therapist: And it's healthy not to like it. It's healthy not to like it.

Client: Not to like the fact that I'm going to die.

VERBATIM TRANSCRIPT OF INTERVIEW:

Guterman: You know that Ellis died last year.

Zeig: I spoke at his tribute.

Guterman: You spoke at his tribute? So, and I know that was in New York. So, what I'm wondering is if you can just share your reflections on his legacy.

Zeig: Oh, an incredible legacy. Albert Ellis saw more patients than anybody in the history of psychotherapy. And he was a wonderfully experiential psychotherapist. He recognized that psychotherapy didn't happen just because of the words that you said. It was because of the experiences that you had. So, Ellis's contribution is of one of the great psychotherapists of history. That's secure, being the father of cognitive-behavioral approaches to psychotherapy. But more than that, he was a tremendous humanist. He spoke endlessly. He spoke whenever people requested him to speak. He was always active. He was a great contributor to the Erickson Foundation. And I think that I first met Al at the 1985 Evolution Conference. But I considered him to be a wonderful friend of the Erickson Foundation.

Guterman: And since you mentioned that, I loved so much, I had the audio tape of, I believe it's your 1985 workshop at the Ericksonian Conference on metaphor.

Zeig: Yeah.

Guterman: If you recall. Do you remember you and Ellis debated?

Zeig: We debated, but that was not in '85. So, I think what,

Guterman: I'm not sure what yours was.

Zeig: But on the Erickson Foundation Web site: http://www.erickson-foundation .org

Guterman: Okay. Which I'll link to with this video.

Zeig: Link to. Yeah. Well, I think there's the actual debate that Ellis and I had.

Guterman: On metaphor...

Zeig: Not on metaphor.

Guterman: ...in psychotherapy.

Zeig: It was, like, poetry versus science.

Guterman: That's it. And I just want to, as we close this, cause I know there's other people want to speak to you. You had drawn a distinction between your approach to psychotherapy and Ellis's approach, saying that yours is an inside-out approach and his is an outside-in.

Zeig: Yes.

Guterman: You know, because his being educative.

Zeig: Yeah.

Guterman: So, today, you draw distinctions, saying, talked about the importance of the experiential approach in psychotherapy, accessing emotion in the client, versus just providing information. So, despite the legacy of Ellis that you value so much, that you just spoke of, you, I was just wondering if you could speak for a moment about that distinction between your work and Ellis's model. Because being a sort of outside-in approach, because nevertheless he was very provocative.

Zeig: He was very provocative and, also, experiential, but more didactic in his approach than I. And much more research-based in his approach. So, I tend to be more on the model of using art. He was more on the model of using science.

Guterman: Right. So, I, I mean, we could really, if we really wanted to go and look at it, we could draw distinctions.

Zeig: To try to expound on that in a few moments is just impossible.

Guterman: And we could spend all day....

Zeig: Absolutely.

Guterman: on that.

Zeig: And fruitfully so.

Guterman: And it would be like a Kuhnian issue of proponents of their paradigms practicing their trades in different worlds.

Zeig: Yeah, but I hope you keep developing that love of Ellis. He was somebody I loved and respected immensely. So, his work shouldn't be lost. It's just too important to contemporary culture, not just to psychotherapy.

Guterman: That's very much appreciated, Jeff...

Zeig: Good luck with it.

Guterman: And thanks very much for the workshop today.

Zeig: Good luck.

Guterman: I learned a lot.

Albert Ellis: The sickness of self-esteem jguterman - 7,800 views - 1 year ago
Excerpt from Jeffrey Guterman's first session with Albert Ellis
January 8, 1986

Guterman: Self-acceptance.

Ellis: Self-acceptance means, I said, I accept myself whether or not I do well, not because I do well. And very few people have that and we have a hard time teaching it to people because they only want to accept themselves when they do well. They're crazy. They're mishuga.

Guterman: It's a little confusing.

Ellis: I know and you better go over it many, many times until you really see the difference between self-esteem, I am a good person because, and self-acceptance, that I can always accept myself even if I murdered 20 people. I wouldn't accept my murdering.

Guterman: What would be the benefit of me accepting myself instead of esteeming myself?

Ellis: Then you wouldn't be anxious.

Without you :: Song written & performed by Jeffrey Guterman jguterman - 62 views - 1 year ago
WITHOUT YOU: Song written & performed by Jeffrey Guterman. Copyright 2006 by Jeffrey Guterman.

WITHOUT YOU

With you in my life
I don't think I could make it
The pain I'd feel inside
I don't think I could take it

With you in my life
I don't think I could fake it
The pain I'd feel inside
I don't think I could shake it

But if you take me back again
I'll be the main you used to know
Until then I will cry
If I am without you

Rational Song as Shame-Attacking Exercise in REBT jguterman - 1,424 views - 1 year ago
Jeffrey T. Guterman, Ph.D. demonstrates a rational song as a shame-attacking exercise, techniques used in rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT). The use of the music from the song Misty qualifies as a "fair use" in keeping with U.S. copyright statute. As of this posting on August 17, 2007, see http://www.copyright.gov/fls/f l102.html for more information. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =BK7MSxKQHtY for longer version of this video.

REBT
(Lyrics by Jeffrey T. Guterman, Sung to the tune, Misty)

Look at me
I'm as hopeless and depressed as I can be
But now I do understand,
The cause of my misery
Yes I understand what's causing my misery

Walk my way
And you'll hear me whining through the day
Or it might be the sound of my heart,
Breaking in two
Cause I'm doing what I never knew

I am demanding that my life be fulfilled
In almost every way I can imagine
Don't you realize how hopelessly I'm lost
That's why I'm following you, Al

Now, look at me
I'm determined to overcome this misery
I see exactly what it's going to take
To make the changes I want to make
It's just four letters
And they are—REBT
