Description
Summary:One salient feature of Logic-Based Therapy (LBT), a form of philosophical counseling based on Rational–Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), is its inclusion of a set of guiding virtues that provide transcendent goals in overcoming self-destructive forms of thinking called “cardinal fallacies”. This paper discusses modes of interconnectivity between these virtues and some prominent types of cardinal fallacies and between each virtue and each fallacy. In comparison to other psychotherapeutic approaches, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Positive Psychology, it shows how clients who embrace these virtues can transcend matching fallacies that create states of negative emotions, such as anxiety and depression, and how these virtues can, in turn, interconnect human beings and promote positive growth.
