Brief Biography

Michael Ungar, Ph.D., is the founder and Director of the听听at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 where he holds the Canada Research Chair in Child, Family and Community Resilience. In 2022, Dr. Ungar was ranked the number one Social Work scholar in the world in recognition of his ground-breaking work as a family therapist and resilience researcher. That work has influenced the way human adaptation in stressful environments and organizational processes are understood and studied globally, with much of Dr. Ungar鈥檚 clinical work and scholarship focused on the resilience of marginalized children and families, and adult populations experiencing mental health challenges at home and in the workplace.

Dr. Ungar provides regular consultation to international NGOs like the Red Cross and Save the Children, government agencies in more than a dozen low, middle, and high-income countries, and educational institutions at all levels of study. He is the author of over 250 peer reviewed articles and book chapters and 17 books. These include Change Your World: The Science of Resilience and the True Path to Success, a book for adults experiencing stress at work and at home, Working with Children and Youth with Complex Needs, a book for mental health professionals and educators, and Multisystemic Resilience: Adaptation and Transformation in Contexts of Change, an open access edited volume with contributors from a dozen diverse disciplines ranging from epigenetics and psychology to architecture and computing science. His blog, Nurturing Resilience, can be read on Psychology Today鈥檚 website.

In recognition of his work, Dr. Ungar was named a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, is the past recipient of the National Distinguished Service Award from the Canadian Association of Social Workers, and has sat on the boards of numerous organizations such as the American Family Therapy Academy and Phoenix Youth Programs, and is national Champion for Children First Canada.
