Delivering wellbeing support, education, consultation and training via the science of optimal human functioning - Positive Psychology.
-
The field of Positive Psychology utilises the scientific method to measure, understand and build qualities that enable individuals, institutions and communities to thrive.
Through exploring what is and what could be, Positive Psychology endeavours to improve quality of life, prevent pathologies and establish pathways to move individuals towards reaching their full potential.
Grounded in theory and backed by research, Positive Psychology explores the mechanisms that foster excellence and resilience, build life satisfaction and lead to optimal functioning.
This science seeks to increase wellbeing and decrease mental illnesses by building the human resources that enable personal mastery and thriving environments.
Through this science we can support individuals, groups and organisations to flourish regardless of external challenges and individual limitations.

A reflection on the research objectives of Positive Psychology by Dr. Martin Seligman and colleagues as stated in the American Psychologist:
“The intent is to have a more complete and balanced scientific understanding of the human experience. the peaks, the valleys, and everything in between. We believe that a complete science and a complete practice of psychology should include an understanding of suffering and happiness as well as their interaction, and validated interventions that both relieve suffering and increase happiness.”
— Seligman, M. E. P., Steen, T., Park, N., & Peterson, C. (2005). Positive psychology progress: Empirical validation of interventions. American Psychologist, 60: p.410.
“To create a holistic picture of human and organizational life, we must capture the inherent tension between positive and negative states and the infinite possibilities for overcoming and flourishing. In so doing, we must take the positive as seriously as we take the negative.
In the end, the life of the story - the heroism - is not just in the tragedy, but also in the triumph.”
- Laura Morgan Roberts - Harvard Buisness School
