Abstract in brief

Positive psychology interventions (PPIs) can improve wellbeing and reduce depression and anxiety in people with clinical disorders, though their effects are generally small.
The review analyzed 30 studies involving 1,864 patients and found moderate benefits for anxiety and small benefits for wellbeing and depression, but inconsistent effects on stress.
Overall, more high-quality research is needed to better understand how effective PPIs are in clinical settings, as current studies have low to moderate methodological quality.
