Positive Psychology was founded on the belief that people want to lead meaningful and fulfilling lives, to cultivate what is best within themselves, and to enhance their experiences of love, work, and play.

It is a strengths-based psychology, which works to promote optimal functioning across the full range of human functioning, from disorder and distress to health and fulfillment.

We also do 'coach-fit' assessments to ensure readiness/ suitability for coaching.

You may not be sure whether you need counselling or coaching. It can be a tricky one but generally if you’re pretty dissatisfied with your life; have unresolved issues from the past that keep interfering in your present day and into your future; and/or have been diagnosed with a clinical disorder such as depression or anxiety then counselling is for you. If you’re only slightly dissatisfied; you have dreams and visions that you want to achieve in your life but have had difficulties moving towards them; or if you have a specific goal you want to work on like writing a book, then coaching would be more useful.
