How to Stop Getting in Your Own Way | An REBT Approach

Many people assume that their thoughts, emotions, and reactions simply reflect who they are. But what if some of the beliefs operating quietly in the background are limiting your freedom, relationships, and ability to become the person you want to be? In this video, I explore one of the most powerful ideas from Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT): learning to identify and dispute unhelpful beliefs. This is not about positive thinking or becoming a different person. It is about becoming freer to live according to your values, communicate more effectively, build stronger relationships, and stop getting in your own way. Topics include: • Unhelpful beliefs and emotional suffering • Why hidden assumptions affect relationships • How disputation creates greater freedom and flexibility • Self-acceptance and personal growth • REBT, meaning, purpose, and connection • Improving communication with partners and loved ones • Becoming a better version of yourself without losing who you are Whether you are a therapist, counseling student, coach, or someone interested in personal growth, this video offers practical insights that can be applied immediately.
