What is Choice Theory® ?
CHOICE THEORY® is the basis for all programs taught by The Institute.
The 1998 book, Choice Theory: A New Psychology of Personal Freedom, Dr. William Glasser
is the primary text that is used in all our training.
Reality Therapy
REALITY THERAPY is the method of counseling that Dr. Glasser has been teaching since 1965.
It is the art of creating a meaningful relationship, and through that relationship, helping clients make more effective choices.
As discussed in Dr. Glasser’s book, Counseling with Choice Theory: The New Reality Therapy, it is now firmly based on Choice Theory, and its successful application is dependent on the counselor’s knowledge of that theory. In fact, teaching Choice Theory to counselees (whether clients or students) is now part of Reality Therapy.
Since unsatisfactory or nonexistent connections with people we need are the source of almost all human problems…
The goal of Reality Therapy is to help people reconnect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is Dr. William Glasser?
Dr. Glasser was a world-renowned board-certified psychiatrist that did not agree with the medical model of medicating for mental illness. Instead, he believed in working with people and helping them to find and build stronger relationships. He first developed Reality Therapy ® in 1965 and after writing several other books in 1998, he published his now classic book called Choice Theory®, A New Psychology of Personal Freedom.
As a Business Owner why would I want to know about Reality Therapy?
It is probably the best communication tool you can learn to lead your team. It helps you learn the art of self-evaluation and will help you and your staff focus on solutions as opposed to problems. Learning these ideas will help you create a happier, more productive workplace. Lead Management is a part of what we teach incorporating these ideas.
I heard that many teachers and school counselors are trained in these ideas, how do they help them?
Most teachers and school counselors tell us that they have mastered classroom management and take great joy in creating a classroom where students love to attend, have fun and learn.
Do I need a specific background to study these ideas?
No, anyone can take this training. We have had parents, grandparents, doctors, nurses, clergy, counsellor, psychiatrists, hairdressers, bus drivers, and others from various walks of life, take this training and learn a communication process that helps them help themselves and others.
