Putting Positive Psychology into Practice

View Demo  Add to Cart »

Although the field of mental health has traditionally aimed to “fix what’s wrong,” the newer subfield of positive psychology instead helps us to “build what’s strong.”

In doing so, we buffer against a variety of mental health difficulties for clients, and may even enhance a broad range of physical health outcomes.

This workshop recording draws from positive psychology, mindfulness-based approaches, and cutting-edge neuroscience.
