How I Use Positive Psychology in Therapy

​

I use Positive Psychology as a supportive, practical approach that helps clients reconnect with their strengths while also making space for difficult emotions.

​

In sessions, this may involve:

​

Recognising strengths and personal resources
Together, we explore the strengths, values, and skills you already have, even if they feel hard to see right now. These become tools you can draw on as you navigate challenges.

​

Building resilience and emotional steadiness
We work on increasing your ability to handle stress, uncertainty, and emotional ups and downs without becoming overwhelmed.

​

Exploring meaning and values
We clarify what matters most to you and how your choices align with those values, which can bring direction and motivation during times of change or loss.

​

Developing healthier ways of responding
You learn how to relate differently to thoughts and emotions, reducing self-criticism and increasing flexibility in how you respond to challenges. This may include small, realistic changes that support your mental health, such as improving rest, strengthening supportive relationships, or creating space for enjoyment and recovery.

When Positive Psychology Can Help

​

Positive Psychology can be helpful if you:

• Feel flat, disconnected, or unfulfilled

• Are recovering from stress or burnout

• Want to build confidence and self-worth

• Are navigating life changes or transitions

• Want to focus on growth, meaning, and wellbeing

​

The Aim

The aim of Positive Psychology in therapy is not to make life perfect, but to help you build the inner resources needed to live with greater resilience, clarity, and fulfilment — even when life feels difficult.
