During the past decade, psychology research has discovered how we can become happier and flourish. Happiness can improve physical and mental health, and has been shown to increase life satisfaction. This new science of happiness offers revolutionary approaches for clinicians promoting a shift from problem oriented focus to an emphasis on strengths, virtues and optimism. Now, more than ever, individuals, families and organizations need help in building resiliency, maintaining the motivation to sustain through difficult times, and recognizing hidden possibilities – all offerings of positive psychology.
Positive psychotherapy can provide effective, evidence-based tools for recovery from anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and distressing relational patterns. Continued practice of these recovery skills rewires the brain to experience greater happiness – and better living.
This experiential seminar recording demonstrates how to harness the power of positive psychotherapy to increase your happiness and the happiness of your clients. Through lectures, clinical examples, and small group work you will learn brief, easily implemented interventions. You will take home tools to measure happiness, fuel resiliency and develop keys for thriving. You will review scientific evidence supporting this approach in clear language designed to encourage and motivate clients. Detailed handouts will further support integration of the workshop material. You will complete this seminar recording with new, effective tools to improve clinical outcomes and support therapist renewal. Practitioners experienced in positive psychology and those new to this approach will benefit from this seminar.
At the end of this recording, you will feel renewed, optimistic and with effective tools for supporting your happiness and the happiness of your clients.
