Programme of Courses at 'Le Sarment'

28th & 29th January 2012 'Official TA101'
A 2-day introductory workshop to TA.
'Transactional analysis is a theory of personality and a systematic psychotherapy for personal growth and personal change'
That's the definition of TA suggested by the International Transactional Analysis Association.  In fact, TA today is all this and much more.  Among psychological approaches, Transactional Analysis is outstanding in the depth of its theory and the wide variety of its applications.
As a theory of personality, TA gives us a picture of how people are structured psychologically.
TA also provides a theory of communication.  This can be extended to give a method of analysing systems and organisations.
TA offers a theory of child development and a theory of psychopathology; the concept of life-script explains how our present life patterns originated in childhood
Also for people interested in using TA in their professional work.
Counts for 12 hours CPD. Also leads to an internationally recognised certificate.
Cost: 150 Euros
Led by: Joanna Beazley Richards, TSTA

Please note: the following advanced training weekends have been postponed. They will be reinstated once we have the dates:

TA Psychotherapy workshop (Transactions)
This workshop will explore Eric Berne's concept of transactions, which are units of social interaction, involving a stimulus and a response. The workshop will describe a wide range of transactions. Participants will explore their own transactional patterns, how to analyse transcations in clinical practice, and how to use transactional analysis in therapeutic work.
Cost: 150 Euros
Led by: Joanna Beazley Richards, TSTA

TA Psychotherapy workshop (Psychological Games)
This workshop will explore Eric Berne's concept of psychological games, which John James described as the process of doing something with an ulterior motive that is outside of Adult awareness, doesn't become explicit until the participants switch the way they are behaving, and results in everyone feeling confused, misunderstood, and wanting to blame the other person. The workshop will describe a wide range of gamess. Participants will explore their own game patterns, how to analyse games in clinical practice, and how to use transactional analysis in therapeutic work.
Cost: 150 Euros
