Who is it aimed at
Psychotherapy trainees and TA Qualified Practitioners.
Workshop Outline
The Drama Triangle (1968) is a well-established TA theory that has developed way past TA (Summerton, 1993), and has been even been researched (Lac & Donaldson, 2022). In this workshop we will consider some of the more complex ways that this can be used in clinical work – considering practically how we might use this with our clients to support change.
We will also consider how this sits within the wider TA landscape and how we can best write about the Drama Triangle.
Aims
The aim for this workshop is to give an overview of how we might use and write about the Drama Triangle, moving past awareness building.
Learning Outcomes
Participants will have a solid understanding of the Drama Triagle, and how to practically work with this model with their clients.
