Abrams

Mike Abrams (born July 16, 1953) is an American psychologist and co-author with Albert Ellis of several works on Rational Emotive and Cognitive Behavior Therapy.  He was instrumental in the formalization of Ellis' model of personality while coauthoring Ellis's only college textbook. Abrams research with Ellis into Rational Emotive and Cognitive Behavior Therapies (CBT) led him to propose that all successful psychotherapies were actually performing CBT - irrespective of their stated theoretical orientation [1]. After Ellis' death Abrams continued Ellis' work on Sexuality taking an evolutionary perspective to love and intimacy [2].
