Cognitive therapy is broken down into many branches. Of two of those, Beck and Ellis, Ellis has his Rational Emotive Therapy and Beck has his Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is redirected here, but this page doesn't give much information about it.

I think some of these need to be seperated out, because I can't find information on Beck's therapy in itself.

PROBLEM: this is the same thing as http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_behaviour_therapy

we need to integrate both pages into one somehow

Terminology: I have seen this kind of therapy referred to as REBT (Rational-Emotive Behavioural Therapy) and RET (Rational-Emotive Therapy); I initially tried searching using 'REBT' and failed to find anything, only finding this later after trying 'therapy'. It would be nice to include these terms in the article (or perhaps put redirects to it; I'm new to Wikipedia so I don't know what's best) so it can be found via those names.

I found it difficult to read this article, it reads like many short paragraphs stuck together without any sense of flow or direction. I don't think that it could be easily solved without a complete re-write though, something that I'm certainly not knowledgeble enough about the subject to do.

Perhaps it should be changed to more resemble the style of the Clinical depression page, given how the two are linked - Xgkkp

Why is there the alternative medicine thingy at the bottom? Cognitive therapy is pretty mainstream. Rosemary Amey 20:25, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Good point. The list on the page Complementary and alternative medicine is of just alternative medicines it seems, and has none of the other main classes of psychology, and is not listed in the article it is trying to be an index of (see alternative medicine). I'll remove the link in a couple of days if no-one objects, and try and find something to replace it with (I think people will agree it's better to have a "see also" section, but I'm not sure what to put in there at the moment) - Xgkkp 20:45, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)
