Glossary of positive psychotherapy

About 150 terms of positive psychotherapy, explained by its founder Nossrat Peseschkian and his long-standing colleague Anas Aziz – now in 20 languages.

A gap has been filled

The glossary covers not only strictly psychological and psychiatric terms, but also therapeutic, educational and philosophical aspects and theories.

It comes from one of Nossrat Peseschkian’s last books, written with Anas Aziz: the Lexikon der Positiven Psychotherapie (Fischer Verlag), with a glossary in German and English.

Trainers from the global network of positive psychotherapy centres have translated it into their mother tongues as part of an international project of the foundation. We would like to offer it in as many languages as possible, and thank all past and future contributors for their wonderful work.
