You may be familiar with findings from positive psychology that underscore common sense beliefs about the sources of happiness. For example: practice gratitude; savor the moment; cultivate positive emotions. But you may not be aware that research from positive psychology has also shown that many of our assumptions about the sources of happiness and success “ain’t necessarily so.”
Join us in learning whether:
Mary Jacobsen has been a teacher, workshop leader, psychotherapist, and career coach for more than 20 years. She is the author of Hand-me-down Dreams: How Families Influence Our Career Paths, and has lectured nationally on the topic of how families influence career decision-making and values about work, success, and money. Jacobsen has been studying positive psychology and integrating it into her work with clients for the last eight years, including Well-being Therapy, a variation of cognitive/behavioral therapy that focuses on identifying and amplifying experiences of feeling good.
Join us for this entertaining, educational event. Just in time for the New Year!
