Abstract:

Short term therapy is suitable for an individual suffering from mild to moderate symptoms of depression and anxiety. Transactional Analysis strongly helps patients suffering from long term issues such as childhood traumas, abuse and elongated grief. Working as a Senior Counsellor in Primary Care, I have witnessed many remarkable recoveries, whilst utilizing key aspects of TA such as: Ego States, Injunctions, Counter Injunctions and strokes. Within my presentation I will be reflecting on my therapeutic practise, describing theories and their outcome measures.
