Primary Focus
I began my journey to marry positive psychology and medicine (Positive Medicine) well over a decade ago.
In 2016, during my year studying at PENN, I realized that medicine was the last frontier that has not embraced positive psychology. These were Dr. Seligman's words. But, what I did find was that physicians are broken. They are sick, medical schools are sick, residencies are sick and the health system in America is sick and broken. This is where positive psychology fits in and is so timely.
