There are many reasons to choose PCOM for positive psychology, including our commitment
to evidence-based practice and an osteopathic tradition that embraces mind-body approaches
to wellness. Our student-focused faculty are highly accomplished in the fields of
positive psychology and/or health psychology. We also are the home of A Happier You, an innovative 7-week positive psychology program to help people adopt new skills
to enhance joy and meaning in life. MAPP students will have a unique opportunity to
learn this program and facilitate it with participants as part of their curriculum.
Students develop skills in motivational interviewing, mindfulness, group facilitation
and program evaluation.
Additionally, PCOM's three healthcare centers offer MAPP students, under licensed supervision, the additional opportunity to facilitate
health, wellness, psychoeducational and mindfulness/stress reduction groups for primary
care patients and members of the community.
