The International Home, Headquarters, and Heart of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and the Center of Excellence for Training and Treatment

Welcome to the Albert Ellis Institute (AEI), a world-renowned psychotherapy training institute established in 1959, committed to promoting emotional well-being through the research and application of effective, short-term therapy with long-term results. AEI exists to help people reshape rigid, self-defeating beliefs into healthier, more flexible ways of thinking. Through REBT’s blend of evidence-based interventions and a compassionate, life-philosophy approach, we equip individuals with practical tools that build emotional resilience, broaden perspective, and create meaningful, lasting change.
