Martin Seligman – Positive Psychology and Psychotherapy
Positive Psychology and Psychotherapy
by Martin Seligman
Martin Seligman shows how to apply the principles of positive psychology to the practice of psychotherapy.
In this landmark interview by Randall C. Wyatt, Seligman emphasizes that happiness is not just the absence of disorder, as “psychology as usual†might contend. Rather, happiness derives from an execution of our signature strengths. Seligman demonstrates a new set of rigorously tested interventions that lastingly increase happiness while decreasing depression.
Dr. Seligman discusses his predecessors Maslow, Rogers, and Beck, what he took from them, and what he changed. He proposes new questions like, “What was the best experience you ever had?†And he explains how easy, enormously fun and important techniques can be grafted on to therapy with all clients to help them live a more engaged, meaningful, and thus happier life.
After watching this lively, personally revealing conversation, you’ll be eager to apply these innovative ideas to your psychotherapy practice!
