"Positive Psychology in Clinical Psychology: A webinar"

📣 NEW EVENT DETAILS! 🟣 "What can Positive Psychology offer Clinical Psychology?: Applying the science of wellbeing and flourishing to mental health care provision" The BPS Division of Clinical Psychology London and SE Branch welcomes you to sign up now for their upcoming event focused on Positive Psychology (PP). PP is the term used to refer to the scientific study of what makes life worth living and how we can cultivate well-being, happiness and flourishing in individuals, groups, organisations and communities. This emphasis in psychology was promoted by Martin Seligman in 1998 when he made this the theme for his presidency of the American Psychological Association. This approach contrasts with the dominant model used in addressing mental ill health which focuses on disorder and the alleviation of symptoms. In this webinar we look at an overview of the ethos, theories and evolution of PP and consider how these ideas might supplement traditional approaches to Clinical Psychology and mental health care. We consider research and snapshots of current practice that hope to inform how what we understand about humans at their best can support us when we are struggling. Event Aims: ✅ To introduce psychologists to the scope concepts, theories, philosophy and evidence base of Positive Psychology (PP). ✅ To explore the research around integrating PP into clinical psychology, the benefits and what this might look like. ✅ To give some examples of how PP is already being used and researched in areas relevant to clinical psychology. ✅ To promote discussion around how PP might link to attendees' own practice and relate to issues of prevention and wellbeing promotion in mental health care. 📅 28th November 2025 (9:30am - 4:30pm) 💻 Sign up now: https://lnkd.in/ef-tqkcW
