If you have been looking for a practical, well-structured, and conceptually clear guide on how to work with across different settings and clinical presentations, this handbook is an essential resource.

What’s inside?
Volume I focuses on theory and foundations, covering the history of PPT, key concepts, models of health and disease, actual capabilities, transcultural perspectives, ethics, online psychotherapy, and PPT as an integrative approach.
Volume II is entirely practice-oriented and guides the reader through the therapeutic process: consultation and first interview, diagnosis, therapeutic contract, alliance, the five stages of therapy, metaphorical communication, and core clinical interventions, including work with children, adolescents, and families.
Volume III addresses work with specific populations and disorders, including couples, depression, anxiety, psychosomatic disorders, trauma (including C-PTSD in ICD-11), addiction, ADHD, eating disorders, personality disorders, as well as self-experience and supervision as essential components of professional development.
This three-volume handbook was prepared by a dedicated group of Polish colleagues from the Wrocław Center for Positive Psychotherapy, under the general editorship of Roman Ciesielski.
We hope this handbook becomes a valuable companion in your clinical work, training, and professional development, as well as a solid reference that can be shared with colleagues from other therapeutic approaches and perspectives, offering a clear understanding of what Positive Psychotherapy is and how it is applied in clinical and practical work.
