Abstract
This article outlines the theoretical assumptions and research base for rational restructuring, a cognitive-behavioral intervention procedure that may be used for the reduction of certain anxiety-related disorders. Specifically applicable to various forms of social-evaluative anxiety, such as social anxiety, unassertiveness, public speaking, and test-taking anxiety, the goal of rational restructuring is to help client to learn to obtain a more realistic perspective on themselves and their relationships with others. In the most general sense, rational restructuring may be construed as a procedure for teaching clients the use of a coping skill. Intervention procedures within the consultation session are described and illustrated, and suggestions are offered for the application of this coping skill in the client's life.
