"WHAT IS
TA?
Transactional analysis (TA) is a theory of human personality, a theory of social behavior, and a comprehensive system of psychotherapy originated by Eric Berne, MD, (1910-1970), in the late 1950’s. Among the attractive features of TA is that it is applicable to situations as diverse as psychotherapy, counselling, educational, coaching, supervision, organisational development, consultation and management training.”
