Introduction:

Core Strengths Coaching:
Practical Applications of Positive Psychology & Coaching Skills

"I do not believe that you should devote overly much effort to correcting your weaknesses. Rather, I believe that the highest success in living and the deepest emotional satisfaction comes from building and using your signature strengths."

Martin E.P. Seligman, PhD
Author, Flourish and Authentic Happiness
Zellerbach Family Professor of Psychology

Positive Psychology Coaching

This program offers fundamental research and strategies in positive psychology and coaching skills which help people to harness their strengths and make positive changes leading to more fulfilling lives.

Positive psychology supports the individual growth and change process by focusing on positive emotion and capitalizing on core strengths -- rather than stressing negative emotion and overcoming weaknesses. The theoretical framework, research-based practices on the science of happiness, and experiential learning processes covered in this program are based on the work of leaders in the field including Martin E.P. Seligman, Ph.D., Sonja Lyubormirsky, Ph.D., Karen Reivich, Ph.D., and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyli, Ph.D., along with many others.

In coaching courses, participants gain an understanding of the stages of behavioral change through an evidence-based model. They also learn and practice coaching skills, including being fully present, listening deeply, and asking key questions, uniquely framed for each individual.

Core Strengths Coaching Certificate

Courses may be taken individually or for a Certificate of Completion (see certificate requirements).

What Students Are Saying about the Program

"I truly enjoyed the Core Strengths Coaching Program. It gave me the courage to explore new possibilities in relationships, career, and life...and to flourish. The Core Strengths Program enabled me to tune in more authentically to my core truth and personal power. I gained new awareness, language and skills that I can apply in my everyday life, at work and even with my teens..."
Christelle Ringuette

"I am so excited to discover this program...I am telling friends and colleagues locally and nationally about [it]. The classes are changing me as a person. They are awakening sides of my life that have been quiet. All of a sudden I feel like writing and expressing myself in ways I haven't done since high school. It is so exciting! I keep telling myself to stay tuned for what's next. It will be a wonderful eye-opening experience. I can't wait for what is next."
Jennifer Frohlinger,
