With Graeme Summers
Sunday 3rd October 2010, 9.45—4.45
This workshop is designed for advanced TA learners wishing to consolidate and expand their understanding of different ego state models within TA.
We will look at the Seven Traditions of TA (Tudor & Hobbes 2002/7) and use this framework to consider how ego states are conceptualized and used within each approach as TA has developed over time. The different approaches help identify different ways of thinking and intervening. We aim to explore common confusions and contradictions between models in order to differentiate, clarify and promote informed awareness of similarities and differences. We will also examine the varied assumptions about human development and health that are often used in conjunction these ego state models within their respective traditions.
