What is Transactional Analysis Therapy?

  • Transactional Analysis Therapy (TA) is a method of psychotherapy looking at how an individual manages social interactions.

  • It looks at whether an individual is communicating from a parent-like, child-like, or adult-like state and why they do so.

  • TA is effective in treating patients who have difficulty with communication. In addition to this, it has become popular in business psychology and relationship therapy.

  • Individuals who struggle with anxiety disorders or understanding attachment styles may benefit from a course of TA.

  • Patients who have undertaken TA as a therapeutic intervention report that they can navigate conflict and confusion better.

  • TA is a way of teaching people how they can solve emotional problems better.

How can MAPP help?

  • Understanding how you interact with other people can be quite daunting. We all feel nervous and shy around certain people and feel confident around others.

  • The thought of having to become confrontational is difficult, and here at MAPP Psychology, we acknowledge how challenging a prospect this may be.

  • Therefore, we have prioritised creating a comfortable and hospitable environment that is accessible to all walks of life.

  • Whether you are new to therapy or have existing experience with psychological counselling, we will welcome you to start any one of our programmes.

  • Our methods will build your communication skills to the point where you will be confident entering social situations.

  • After a course of therapeutic intervention, you will be equipped with knowledge of how to deal with social interactions better.

  • Because of this, you will be able to make better decisions long after you have finished your therapeutic programme.

What results can you expect?

  • If you’re advised to pursue TA as a form of therapy, you will notice more about how you interact with friends, family, work colleagues, and any members of the public.

  • Any anxieties you may feel surrounding social interaction will be analysed through the new tools you have learned during therapy. In addition to this, you will be able to think carefully about the ways you communicate.

  • TA is a therapy designed to aid patients in becoming more assertive and contemplative.

  • If you believe these are skills you may need to improve upon, then MAPP Psychology is ready to welcome you to its centre.

  • We understand the challenges you face, and we want to begin creating habits that will improve your outlook on life.

At MAPP, therapy starts with you.

Your psychologist takes the time to listen, then builds a plan around your goals and circumstances.

What makes that possible is the depth & range of training and experience our doctors of psychology bring to the table. Our psychologists are trained in a broad span of therapy modalities, from CBT and ACT to compassion-focused therapy, person-centred therapy and everything in between.

We fit the approach to you, not you to the approach, and regular check-ins keep it working as your needs change.

We're committed to giving you the support and tools you need to build towards a happier, healthier life.
