Patrice PalmerThank you for visiting my website. I combine 23 years' of experience as an adult educator, trainer and writer with my studies in positive psychology, positive education and positive coaching to help people learn and apply simple interventions to enabe them to thrive and flourish. I enjoy helping people discover and use their character strengths. My educational background includes a Master of Education, a Master of Arts, and Certificates in Positive Psychology and Positive Education from Wilfred Laurier University. I have a Positive Coaching credential from The CaPP Institute (USA), several TESL Ontario accreditations and am a Certified Training and Development Professional through the Institute of Performance and Learning. I'm interested in the benefits of yoga and mindfulness and recently completed SMART: Stress Management and Resiliency Techniques - a mindfulness program for educators developed by UBC. I'm currently enrolled in the Compassion Fatigue training offered by TEND. My experience with professional burn-out in 2015 led me to reflect on my own lack of self-care and adopt positive psychology interventions which I now share with educators and administrators locally and internationally.
