The Efficacy Between CBT and REBT The argument between CBT being more efficacious than REBT derives from Padesky and Beck (2003) stating that CBT is an empirically based system of therapy‚ whereas REBT is a philosophically based psychotherapy.

The main aspect of the psychodynamic theory is that behavior is directed by forces within one’s personality‚ but is usually hidden in the subconscious. According to Sigmund Freud‚ behavior is caused by unconscious thoughts‚ impulses and desires. He also theorized that many of our unconscious thoughts are too hard for us to deal with and so are repressed.
