What is positive psychology therapy?
Positive psychology therapy is an evidence-based approach that focuses on building well-being rather than solely addressing problems. Rooted in research by psychologists like Martin Seligman, it emphasizes cultivating positive emotions, engagement, meaningful relationships, purpose, and accomplishment—sometimes called the PERMA model. Rather than asking "what's wrong," positive psychology explores "what's working" and helps you build on those foundations.
Who might benefit from positive psychology therapy?
Positive psychology may be helpful for people who want to enhance their overall sense of well-being, develop greater resilience, or find more meaning in daily life. It can support those experiencing mild to moderate low mood, people going through life transitions, and anyone interested in personal growth. It's also often used alongside other therapeutic approaches to create a more balanced treatment plan.
What does positive psychology therapy involve?
Sessions often include exercises designed to increase awareness of strengths, gratitude practices, goal-setting focused on meaningful pursuits, and strategies for building positive habits. Your therapist may introduce activities like journaling about things that went well, identifying signature strengths, or exploring what gives your life a sense of purpose. The specific approach will depend on your goals and your therapist's style.
How long does positive psychology therapy take?
The length of therapy varies based on your individual goals and circumstances. Some people find that a few sessions help them develop useful tools and perspectives, while others prefer ongoing support as they work toward deeper changes. Your therapist can help you establish a timeline that makes sense for what you're hoping to achieve, and you can adjust as you go.
How do I know if a therapist is right for me?
Finding the right fit matters. On First Session, each therapist has an intro video where they share their approach and personality, which can help you get a sense of whether you'd feel comfortable working with them. You can also filter by factors like location, availability, and areas of focus. Many people find it helpful to book an initial session to see how the connection feels before committing to ongoing work.
How do I book a session with a positive psychology therapist?
You can browse positive psychology therapists on First Session and book directly through the platform. Watch intro videos to find someone whose approach resonates with you, then select a time that works for your schedule. If you're new to therapy or unsure where to start, our guide on how to find a therapist in Canada offers helpful tips for making your decision.
