The Transactional Analysis Podcast

A podcast about getting the best out of yourself and others, with hosts Matt Taylor, John Fleming, Parul Arora and Sarah Lowes.

 

TA is a psychosocial model that has four fields of application – Counselling, Educational, Organisational and Psychotherapy. It has been described as a metamodel and a “set of maps” for the individuals, relationships, groups and organisations. It offers us ways to understand the complex human experience: ourselves and our personal psychology, our relationships with others, the dynamics of groups and organisations, and the process of education and learning. All in all, it’s very comprehensive. We believe it holds great value for those looking to change and grow, those who facilitate change in groups or organisations, and those who educate in any way.

It is our aim to promote the theories and models of TA by interviewing individuals who teach and supervise TA students, as well as certified practitioners who are passionate about TA.
