Transactional Analysis PSYCHOTHERAPY MAKES SENSE OF HOW people EXPERIENCE THEIR relationship to others, THEIR ENVIRONMENT and themselves.

Psychotherapy is a way to re-write your story
In the therapeutic relationship, we can make changes to your self-limiting patterns.
We all have a past that has created a narrative we tell ourselves. This narrative makes sense of our lives and the things that we have experienced. However sometimes we get stuck in repetitive loops in the story and repeat patterns of behaviour that keep us feeling sad, alone, afraid or angry. I'd like to re-write that story with you so you can change the impact on yourself and with other people in your life.
Transactional Analysis is one way of doing this. I also work with Process Oriented Psychology and Family Constellations.

Transactional Analysis is a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Eric Berne. It is a wonderful technique for understanding how human beings work and why they relate to each other in certain ways. It is a process that looks at how the past may still be impacting the present.
We will look at what you learned from your early relationships and clarify how you relate in the present. We also look at how how unconscious negative beliefs about yourself developed in childhood are played out in your life in general. By separating out what works from what doesn't work, what belongs to the past and what belongs to the present it is possible for you to change your future. I share effective therapeutic tools with the client to clarify thoughts, empower the self, explore feelings, support change and create a space for healing to occur. Do you ever feel that you are repeating patterns and wondering: "What's going wrong in my life?" .......And sometimes you feel really overwhelmed and young. Well once upon a time you were a very small being in a very big world.... .......And at times that little part of you probably still feels overwhelmed. As children we have to learn behaviours in order to cope with things that we may only partly understand. These ways of behaving helped us get by, but may be less useful now. In practicing Transactional Analysis I believe it is important to 'get to know' that part of your self and give all those confusing feelings some time to express themselves in a safe and contained environment. I believe that all of who you are is important. Part of therapy is developing a new internalised adult voice that is more nurturing and thoughtful about your wellbeing. One of the useful models for doing this is Berne's theory of Ego States. A Therapy of Relationship Because TA looks at how we relate to each other and how this relates to the past it is has proved to be an extremely effective way of working with couples and groups.
