Fiona Firman, PTSTA highlights the benefits of the TA101 – Introduction to Transactional Analysis
Have you ever wondered why you do the things you do - why you think, feel and behave the way you do, and why you're different from everyone around you?
The TA101 is a two-day introduction to Transactional Analysis, offering a compassionate lens through which to understand yourself and the people in your life. TA is an accessible yet profound psychological framework. Its easy to engage with as a newcomer, yet rich enough to fascinate and satisfy practitioners for a lifetime.
The model can be applied to personal relationships, the workplace, and educational settings. For many people, it becomes the first step on a path to training as a counsellor or psychotherapist.
About the course
This two-day course is an internationally recognised qualification and is your passport to further TA training, whether your interest is personal development, counselling, or psychotherapy. You will be introduced to a wide range of TA theory and invited to reflect on yourself and others, integrating your learning and considering new options for communication and behaviour in your life and relationships.
The material is delivered in a stimulating, interactive and experiential way, drawing on didactic teaching, paired and small group work, reflection and discussion. Groups are kept intentionally small to ensure a safe and supportive learning environment.
We offer TA101 both online and in-person. In-person courses take place at Physis Scotland's premises in the heart of Edinburgh's West End. Online courses are delivered via Zoom where you can join us from the comfort of your own home and from wherever you are located around the globe. If booked on one of the online courses, you will receive your Zoom link from our Programme Manager a few days before the course date. Please check your spam folder if it does not arrive in your inbox. Please check the booking page for each date to confirm whether it is online or in-person.
