Abstract	This critical review delves into the effectiveness and implications of employing positive psychology interventions within the context of cancer patient care. Evaluating a spectrum of studies, methodologies, and outcomes, this analysis examines the tangible impact of positive psychology strategies on the mental, emotional, and potentially physiological well-being of individuals facing cancer. The study revealed varying effectiveness among positive psychology interventions for cancer patients, highlighting specific techniques that notably alleviate psychological distress. Given the complexity of psychological and physiological distress of cancer, this investigation attempts to shed light on positive psychology's potential as an additional support system and provide insights into how it might promote emotional resilience and overall wellbeing during a cancer patient's journey.
