The questioner says, “I have always wondered what the difference is between a positive intervention and ACT.” Obscured within this polite statement are the questions they really want to ask: is there anything new about positive interventions, or are we “selling old wine in a new bottle”? What do positive interventions bring to the table that other interventions do not? These are, we think, reasonable questions, and ones that researchers in our field too rarely take the time to answer. Equally pressing is a concern that we hear more rarely, but are fairly certain lurks in the back of our questioners’ minds with some regularity: Isn’t it irresponsible to ignore a person’s problems? Isn’t there a risk that such an approach can do harm to clients? One central goal of this chapter is to explore the ways in which positive intervention research has and has not been thoughtful about exactly these issues.

  • Positive Psychotherapy for Psychosis – a New Approach in the Rehabilitation of Patients Suffering from Schizophrenia

Unlike some traditional methods of psychotherapy, PPP focuses on positives rather than on problems. PPP was shown in the context of other therapeutic approaches used in psychiatric rehabilitation and a mechanism of changes in the functioning and thinking of patients using this approach was described. PPP strengthens the patients’ resources, including positive emotions, positive features of character, sense of life, positive relationships, and internal motivation. PPP does not suggest that other approaches are inappropriate and it is not intended to replace well-established treatments. A program of 13 PPP sessions adapted for patients with schizophrenia was also described. PPP sessions were divided into 3 thematic groups and according to the degree of difficulty: “the easiest” (savoring, positive things – sessions 1–4), “medium” (strong character traits, recognition of strengths in oneself, perceiving strengths in other people, positive communica- tion – sessions 5–7) and “the most difficult” (bad vs. good memories, gratitude, forgiveness, hope, optimism and posttraumatic growth – sessions 8–13).

  • Applications of Positive Psychotherapy for Marriage and Family Therapy
    Applications of Positive Psychotherapy for Marriage and Family Therapy Nossrat Peseschkian Every age has its own problem and every soul its particular aspiration. Bahá’u’lláh He who knows himself and others will realize, that Orient and Occident cannot be separated any more. Goëthe Introduction In order to understand observed behaviour, we need background information to use as a yardstick for later judgment. This means it is necessary to take into consideration the transcultural conditions as well as the conditions which, in the personal history of the patient, first gave his behaviour a meaning. Over the last thirteen years, I have developed a new concept of psychotherapy and self-education which has been developed from a transcultural point of view. In Germany when you meet someone the greeting ceremony begins with the question: “How are you?” The answer: “Thank you, very well” means, if I am healthy and I am well everything is alright. In the same situation in the Orient one asks: “How are you, how is your wife and your children?” It means, if my family is well everything is well, and I feel well. In Kenya when they meet, the Masai greet each other with the words: “I hope your cattle are well.” In Germany usually people have depressions because of their isolation and lack of contact. In the Orient people become sick and depressive because they have excessive contact. In my work I have tried to explain the universal significance of the transcultural aspect, to systematize the contents of the transcultural problems, and to show its significance for the development of conflicts.

  • Positive Psychotherapy Tayyab Rashid, Ph.D., C.Psych
    Positive Psychotherapy Tayyab Rashid, Ph.d., C.Psych Positive Psychotherapy (PPT) is a therapeutic endeavour within positive psychology to broaden the scope of traditional psychotherapy. Its central premise is to address positive resources of clients such as positive emotions, character strengths and meaning -- in addition to treating symptoms—in treating psychopathology. Accentuating positive resources may serve clients best not when life is easy, but when life is difficult. Because the human brain is hard-wired to attend and respond more strongly to negatives than to positives, psychopathology exacerbates this propensity. Therefore, accentuation of strengths, along with amelioration of symptoms is a better therapeutic approach. PPT seeks to balance attention and resources by engaging clients in discussions about, say, an injustice done whilst also focusing on recent acts of kindness. Similarly, along with insults, hubris and hate, experiences of genuine praise, humility and harmony are also deliberately elicited. Pain associated with the trauma is empathetically attended to whilst also exploring the potential for growth. PPT is based on three assumptions (Rashid & Seligman, 2013). First, clients inherently desire growth, fulfillment and happiness instead of just seeking to avoid misery, worry and anxiety. Psychopathology engenders when the growth is thwarted. Second, positive resources such as strengths are authentic and as real as symptoms and disorders. These are not defenses, Pollyannaish illusions or clinical by-products of symptom relief that lie at the clinical peripheries without needing attention. The final assumption is that effective therapeutic relationships can be formed through the discussion and manifestation of positive resources, not only thorough lengthy analysis of weaknesses and deficits.

Abstract Objective: Service user satisfaction with therapy is a key part of the therapeutic process. The aim of this study was to investigate service user experiences of an 11-week group positive psychology intervention for psychosis (WELLFOCUS PPT) in the context of a randomised controlled trial (ISRCTN04199273). Method: Participants were 37 individuals (51% male; mean age 45.6 years) receiving the intervention as part of the trial. Semi-structured interviews and focus groups were conducted to investigate participants’ views of WELLFOCUS PPT. Transcripts were analysed both deductively and inductively to identify common themes. Results: Feedback about the group experience was positive throughout. Components found helpful included learning to savor experiences, identifying and developing strengths, forgiveness, gratitude and therapist self-disclosure. Discussion: Findings emphasize the importance of considering service users’ perceptions of therapy and can be used to guide clinicians in deciding whether to include one or more of the components of WELLFOCUS PPT in therapy. Service user satisfaction with therapy as an important therapeutic process has recently attracted increasing research attention (Smith, Norton, & McLean, 2013). Failing to consider service user views about their treatment may increase therapy drop-out and lead to poor treatment outcomes (Swift & Callahan, 2009).

It is a multicomponent model promoting therapeutic change by developing engagement, pleasure and meaning. There is some evidence it is effective for depression. PPT is recommended as a flexible model that can be applied to other patient groups alongside other treatments approaches. However, it remains unclear which of the many components are applied. Objective: The aim was to identify how PPT is applied in mental health care. Methods: We systematically searched online databases including Medline, Embase, PsycINFO, BNI, CINAHL and Cochrane registers (CENTRAL) and completed complementary hand and citation searches.

The user has requested enhancement of the downloaded file. Operationalisation of Countertransference in Positive Psychotherapy MAKSIM GONCHAROV Abstract Most examples of countertransference found in literature, refer to the perceived emotional reactions of the therapist, and unconscious components are considered in terms of transitory "blind spots", which may be worked through by gaining awareness of the emotional reactions. Previously, the term "countertransference", as psychoanalytic in origin, used primarily by psychoanalysts. However, now it is recognized by many schools of psychotherapy and applied much more widely. Today there are two opposite approaches to the concept of countertransference. The first approach can be called "classical." It is characterized by the concept of countertransference, regarded as an unconscious reaction of the psychoanalyst to the transference of the patient. The second approach is called "holistic». In it's light the countertransference is a common emotional reactions of the therapist to the patient in the treatment situation. Despite the fact that the concept of transference and countertransference
