Cognitive behavior therapy lessons have been a wonderful experience since various
cognitive behavior therapy approaches such as REBT, CT, and CBT. The human being is
associated with disturbing and destructive thoughts that influence their emotions and behavior.
Therefore, self-talk and setting smart goals, tracking ideas when experiencing a problematic
situation, and recognizing cognitive alterations are among the various mental restructuring
practices. Thus, human nature shares the potential for rational or irrational thinking based on
their positions. For instance, in the instances that resulted in depression, individuals blame
themselves and avoid actualization advancement due to their current situation, making them less
motivated in being who they are. The assumptions and beliefs triggered by a given problem put
the depression of an individual in motion. Thus, the REBT approach can be essential in helping
individuals accept themselves from emotional disturbance, as Albert Ellis represents it.
Furthermore, CT and CBT contribute to CBT as they share various attributes with REBT.
For successful therapy, one has to be in a good relationship with the therapist they engage since
it allows them to be free and talk with them without fear. Thus, the relationship between a client
and therapist has to exist. Such a relationship will allow the client to understand their feelings,
events, thoughts, and behavior from an interference event, as the A-B-C framework model
a client and therapist. It provides CBT a ground for understanding oneself and being not-self.
