What participants thought

• “A real eye-opener. You are given tools to turn a problem into an opportunity. REBT makes you aware of your stream of thoughts and the interpretations behind them. You learn that it is not the problems themselves that make things so difficult for us and get us into trouble, but the way we look at those problems and how we interpret them. A wonderful course. Everyone should take it.”

  Helma vom Hofe, PCBO - RET: Stop worrying

• "It was a very good training course that gives you various tools you can apply immediately in your daily life. The course helped me enormously to look at things in a different way. I was able to bring in plenty of my own cases and ample time was taken for these. The trainer was excellent too; a great deal of expertise, gave good feedback and helped where needed. All in all, highly recommended!"

  L. Valkenburg, Capgemini B.V. - RET: Stop worrying

What does the teaching method of the REBT course Stop Worrying look like?

De training wordt klassikaal gegeven door een psycholoog die gespecialiseerd is in persoonlijke ontwikkeling. Je wisselt af tussen theorie, zelfreflectie, oefenen met praktijksituaties en experimenteren met nieuw gedrag. Aan de hand van het A-B-C-schema van Albert Ellis analyseer je belemmerende gedachten en buig je ze om naar effectievere overtuigingen.

What is the difference between the REBT course Stop Worrying and a mindfulness or stress management course?

RET (Rationeel-Emotieve Therapie) richt zich specifiek op het herkennen en ombuigen van irrationele gedachten, terwijl mindfulness vooral leert om gedachten te observeren zonder oordeel. Bij RET werk je actief met het A-B-C-schema: je analyseert de gebeurtenis (A), de gedachte erover (B) en het resulterende gedrag of de emotie (C). Vervolgens daag je belemmerende overtuigingen, zoals rampdenken of fanatiek perfectionisme, gericht uit. Mindfulness leert je accepteren, RET leert je herstructureren. De methodiek is ontwikkeld door psycholoog Albert Ellis en wordt bij Learnit gegeven door psychologen. Kies voor RET als je concreet wilt stoppen met piekeren door je denkpatronen te veranderen. Kies mindfulness als je vooral rust en aandacht wilt trainen. De training wordt klassikaal gegeven.

When should I choose the REBT course instead of a self-help book or an online programme about worrying?

A self-help book or online programme on REBT gives you the theory and some exercises, but you apply it to your own thinking on your own. That works if you are mainly looking for insight and are disciplined enough to practise by yourself. In Learnit's classroom-based REBT course you work with a psychologist who helps you recognise your own limiting beliefs, you get immediate feedback on your A-B-C scheme and you practise in real-life situations with other participants. Choose the course if you notice that reading alone does not lead to behavioural change, if you get stuck on persistent patterns such as perfectionism or catastrophising, or if you benefit from personal guidance and practice in a group. For a general interest in REBT, a book will usually suffice.

What can I concretely do differently after RET training?

After the course you will recognise your own unhelpful thoughts and be able to turn them into rational alternatives using Albert Ellis's A-B-C model. In practical terms this means: you will recognise faulty reasoning, catastrophising, fanatical perfectionism and low frustration tolerance in yourself, and you will apply the REBT model to real situations from your work or private life. You will have practised with real-life situations in which you previously got stuck, for example saying 'no', delegating or tackling a conflict. The course is taught in a classroom setting by a psychologist specialising in personal development. This is a deliberate choice: one is too short to genuinely break through thought patterns, because practising in real life between the course days is a fixed part of the method.
