Positive Psychology aims to shift the focus from merely addressing problems to fostering personal growth and optimal functioning. Application and Scope of Positive Psychology: Positive Psychology is applied across various domains, including therapy, education, and organizational development. It's particularly effective for individuals seeking to enhance their overall well-being, resilience, and life satisfaction. Positive Psychology is relevant for people of all ages and backgrounds who wish to lead happier and more meaningful lives. What to Expect in Positive Psychology Sessions: In Positive Psychology sessions, you'll work with a trained practitioner who will guide you through exercises and interventions aimed at enhancing positive emotions and strengths. You'll explore topics such as gratitude, optimism, character strengths, and the pursuit of meaningful goals. Positive Psychology empowers individuals to identify and cultivate the factors that contribute to their happiness and well-being.
