Dr. David Austin’s 7th edition of Therapeutic Recreation Processes and Techniques offers a newer section on Positive Psychology. I was very glad to see this because I think that Recreational Therapy practitioners are primarily positive psychologists.
I’m offering a
special three self-study CEU courses on positive psychology. Total contact
hours: 15 or (1.5 CEUs).
FREE Books included for all three courses! Limited Time Offer -- It will end without notice.
