Wife of the late Albert Ellis, Debbie Joffe Ellis, talks to us today about Albert’s work, his legacy and some details about REBT.
You can find more information about Debbie and REBT from her website where she also offers a free emotional self-care sheet, videos and articles – http://www.debbiejoffeellis.com/
Really enjoyed listening to Debbie Jaffe Ellis ,I remember her on stage at the evolution conference in 2005 assisting Dr. Ellis. Many years before I was trained in Rational Recovery a work by Dr. Ellis and Jack Trumpy.
I am glad to hear SoP supporting his work because before we knew of neuroplasicity, Ellis’s work was doing just that. His approach to zapping descrepencies is pioneering. He disputed the juxtapositions of our thinking going to the core of emotions, working bottom up not top down. It was a joy to hear his voice in Debbie’s inflections as she described his work.
Thanks
John
