Today's Quotes are from Albert Ellis



Albert Ellis (September 27, 1913 – July 24, 2007) was an American psychologist who in 1955 developed Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). He held M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in clinical psychology from Columbia University and American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP). He also founded and was the president emeritus of the New York City-based Albert Ellis Institute.[1] He is generally considered to be one of the originators of the cognitive revolutionary paradigm shift in psychotherapy and the founder of cognitive-behavioral therapies. Based on a 1982 professional survey of U.S. and Canadian psychologists, he was considered as the second most influential psychotherapist in history (Carl Rogers ranked first in the survey; Sigmund Freud was ranked third).[2] Prior to his death, Psychology Today described him as the “greatest living psychologist.” [3]

Albert Ellis

Albert Ellis

Albert Ellis  

Rational beliefs bring us closer to getting good results in the real world.
Albert Ellis  

We teach people that they upset themselves. We can't change the past, so we change how people are thinking, feeling and behaving today.
Albert Ellis

You largely constructed your depression. It wasn't given to you. Therefore, you can deconstruct it.
Albert Ellis
