Section on Positive Psychology Membership Application

Positive psychology involves an attempt to move toward a more positive and appreciative perspective regarding motives, capacities, and human potentials. Counseling psychology historically and presently continues to be one of the few disciplines that highlights the values of fostering human capacities, satisfaction, and well-being. In some form counseling psychology always has been a vital part of promoting good health and preventing disease, including mental, physical, and social disorders for individuals and communities. It is in the context that this special interest group developed and that section status is being proposed. The aim of the this group is to focus on how counseling psychology fosters and builds human strength and well-being and in pursuing this endeavor, furthers the development of positive psychological science and practice.
