The article is dedicated to examining the psychological well-being characteristics of youth in wartime conditions and justifying the method of positive psychotherapy in enhancing its level. By summarizing some theoretical sources, it was determined that psychological wellbeing is an important factor in the formation and successful functioning of the individual. It is viewed through positive aspects of personal functioning and reflects the individual's experiences of such aspects of personal existence as autonomy, competence in communication with others, the ability for personal growth, self-acceptance, and the experience of lifeawareness. The negative impact of military actions on the personality of young people was revealed, leading to the manifestation of negative emotions, the destruction of life prospects, a sense of security, stability, and, in general, a decrease in the level of psychological well-being.This highlights the need to study the factors of positive personal functioning, the development of personal potential, life prospects, values, personal growth, positive attitude, and selfperception, and to find methods that effectively address these issues. Using a number of psychological methods, a diagnosis of the psychological characteristics of well-being of young people in wartime conditions was conducted. The results of the diagnosis indicated a predominance of low life satisfaction and a high level of negative emotions (anxiety, fear, depression, restlessness, hopelessness, etc.). It is substantiated that the method of positive psychotherapy, which is aimed at activating and mobilizing a person's strengths and resourcesfor making positive decisions, is effective in enhancing the level of psychological well-being of youth. Positive psychotherapy techniques are based on the use of various practices aimed at developing self-awareness, and actively using positive thinking, which helps find positivity andsolutions to difficulties and complex life situations, promotes personal growth, and forms a positive worldview. The method is directed towards the development of abilities and personal potential. The prospects for further research lie in the in-depth study of factors influencingpsychological well-being and the search for and development of effective psychological methods for its development.
