It also includes additional in-depth written materials such as practitioner handbooks, client workbooks, instructions, PowerPoint slides, and more. You can choose to follow all of the modules or complete only the ones relevant to your specific professional needs.

Likewise, a school teacher may use the tools in the classroom but it would not be advisable to use the tools provided for clinical populations.

  1. Dr. Leonard Read Sulik, M.D.

    I think in order to grasp a real level of understanding and mastery of positive psychology, the sailboat metaphor (explained in this program) is a really lovely way of coming to a well-organized understanding. The way it’s organized, the way that you have put all of this together in this framework I think has been really well done.

  2. Melissa A. Bordogna, Ph.D.

    The Life Navigation program is just brilliant! The courses are very thorough with easy-to-digest video lessons alongside professionally developed supporting materials and resources, which saves me time and money in my mentoring practice. PositivePsychology.com is my trusted source for my own professional development in the discipline as well as for tools and resources to use with my clients.

  3. Michael Bloomquist, Ph.D., LP

    I think this program is useful for practitioners who are working with “at-risk” people or folks who are trying to enhance personal development, but it can also be infused with psychotherapy, in working with people who are having mental health problems. This framework has helped to organize the field of positive psychology.

  4. Denise Schaub

    This is fantastic! Over the years, I’ve felt that I was spending too much time preparing materials because there was so much to organize. I love this framework…not only is it helpful to the client, but mastering this has brought me added confidence that I’m covering the big picture in a balanced manner. The slide of the lighthouse shining on the boat just brought it all home for me. Thank you!

  5. Amy Sinacola

    The resources you provide are invaluable. There is so much research-based information explained in a way that is easy to understand and translate to clients. I use the resources in one-to-one coaching sessions, use the activities to support my lecturing, and am looking forward to delivering my first masterclass this year. This has saved me lots of time in doing my own research, and the members area is easy to use and navigate.

    Ellen Jackson

    I’m so impressed by the Life Navigation program. Like all of the PositivePsychology.com courses, the materials cover key psychological concepts in enough depth to satisfy and inform those with prior knowledge but are presented in a way that’s accessible and easy to digest for those new to the field. The mix of video, slides, and workbooks makes learning easy and fun, and the tools and resources are perfect for use with coaching and workplace clients.

    I teach people who smoke how to use resilience skills, self-acceptance skills, and personal strengths to give up using nicotine and find meaning and value in a nicotine-free lifestyle. I use your products to develop content for the tobacco cessation classes, and I am now getting requests to scale my program and train others on how to facilitate.

  8. Evan Parks, Psy.D.

    I completed Life Navigation©. This course was key in shifting my focus from focusing only on symptom management to growth. The patients and clients I have worked with have been greatly impacted by discovering their own strengths and learning how to build stronger relationships with others.

  9. Melku

    I am very much interested with the masterclass programs. I want to earn a certificate and empower my profession as a coach, However, the problem is connected to payment. I live in Ethiopia, and can’t afford the money to buy your materials and attend courses. Can you arrange for me a free-access to all what I want or offer me a scholarship for online training? I am dedicated to serve the community.
    With regards,

      Hi Melku,

      Thank you for your interest in our programs. Unfortunately, we do not currently offer scholarships or price adjustments for these products (although we will sometimes run discounts/sales). As an alternative, I’d suggest taking a look at some of the training available on platforms like Coursera or Udemy, which I believe sometimes offer scholarships to receive certificates upon completion of their courses.
