Invitation to attend

Reflective practice is at the heart of building competence as a Transactional Analysis (TA) practitioner.  We learn to take account of ourselves in the process with others, by regularly practising reflection, and by taking our work to supervision.

We use the TA concepts to analyse our own behaviour, in order to understand the impact we had on another person.  Through reflection we can learn how to support ourselves with strength, and eventually through practicing this skill we go on to be able to analyse in the moment, second by second what is happening between us and another.  What is going on?  Are these my feelings am I picking up or the emotions of my client? What might the undercurrents be telling me?  What options do I have?

Aims and intentions

  • to explore the learning cycle and how we can sometimes get stuck
  • understand our preferred learning style and how to use it
  • discuss processes for self-analysis
  • introduce meta-level analysis using TA conceotps
  • preparation and use of supervision

The workshop

All the workshops on the TA Practitioner programme are conducted online.

Participants receive a comprehensive workshop paper prior to the workshop, in order for them to read and reflect on the TA subjects which will be discussed online.  This means that the brain is already making connections even before the workshop takes place!

The five hour workshops will then provide an opportunity for discussion of the theory, time to ask questions, make links, work on activities to stimulate thinking and to work out the ways in which to apply the learning to your professional practice, or your own personal development.
