| Abstract | The study examined the issues and concerns of selected Filipino counselors on how they perceived adversities; and evaluated the effectiveness of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) as an intervention to improving their Adversity Quotient. An explanatory sequential research design through one group pretest-posttest method and case study were employed among five counselor participants. Scale scores and case notes were documented to examine how participants responded to the intervention. Findings revealed that the perceived adversities of the counselor participants were mostly about the things that they can control and facilitate. Due to irrational thoughts and beliefs, their thinking, feeling and behaving were negatively affected. The REBT significantly improved the Endurance dimension and the overall Adversity Quotient of selected Filipino Counselors. In support, counselor participants were able to address not only on their personal issues but as well as on the challenges that they faced on their profession. Finally, the results of the study might be used by helping professionals and educators in guiding their clients to improve their Adversity Quotient through psychoeducation, enrichment programs and counseling. |
