Many Ts don't subscribe to any one strict technique so one that is strictly into REBT is on Id avoid too since it can be very harsh. I think AA uses this philosophy. While it is obviously helpful for some people, it depends on what they are presenting for and the personality of the client.
It's similar to CBT although it is more confrontational. For some clients that is necessary but others wouldn't do well with it at all (as with any type of therapy). I myself prefer a T who has a certain philosophy but a flexible style.
