A Living History of Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy
This important book offers a comprehensive review of over 70 years of transactional analysis psychotherapy from within the field, considering its historical context and various applications, as well as how different aspects of the theory emerged and how they are applied. The book examines the structure of transactional analysis, taking readers on a journey from the inception of the method to present-day applications of the theory. The authors raise questions around the way the theory may be taught as doctrine and ask readers to consider how new aspects of theory are fully integrated into the already existing schema. The authors also highlight the zeitgeist within which TA was developed and offer reflections as to how further developments are also part of a particular spirit and mood of the times in which they were developed. A Living History of Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy offers coherence between different aspects of TA theory and when, where, and why they are used, making it important reading for TA scholars, students, and practitioners.
Physical Touch in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy
This groundbreaking book presents a new model for incorporating the human body, and specifically physical touch, into psychoanalysis and psychotherapy, particularly for patients who have experienced trauma. Novak’s model of informed and disciplined touch articulates five categories of touch and three phases of therapeutic body work, all of which can help move the patient and therapist directly into bodily experiences that enable trauma memories to be processed, and then analyzed and transformed. This transformation leads to patients experiencing their bodies in fundamentally new ways, both relationally and intrapsychically. The book also grapples with the risks and ethics of working direct...
Transactional Analysis Proper—and Improper
Transactional Analysis Proper—and Improper: Selected and New Papers offers a critical reading of transactional analysis (TA), which analyses, deconstructs, and reconstructs its foundational theory. Keith Tudor’s work is detailed, informative, and critical, and written with deep affection for TA and its founder, Eric Berne. Beginning with its philosophical foundations, Tudor considers TA’s ontological assumptions about the essence of human beings, its method and methodology, and its treatment philosophy. A series of chapters then review and advance TA’s theory of transactions, ego states, life scripts, and psychological games, and the book concludes with two chapters which both honor TA’s traditions and look forward to what TA might do differently. This book offers a unique ‘insider but independent’ perspective on transactional analysis. It will be essential reading for students and practitioners of transactional analysis and encourages free, independent, and critical thinking about TA and its place in the world.
At the Interface of Transactional Analysis, Psychoanalysis, and Body Psychotherapy
At the Interface of Transactional Analysis, Psychoanalysis, and Body Psychotherapy revolves around two intertwined themes: that of the critique and expansion of the theory and practice of transactional analysis and that of the generative richness discovered at the intersection of transactional analysis, psychoanalysis, and somatic psychotherapy. William F. Cornell explores the work of psychotherapists and counsellors through the lenses of clinical theory, practice, supervision, and ethics. The reader is thus invited into a more vivid experience of being engaged and touched by this work’s often deep, and at times difficult, intimacy. The book is grounded in the approaches of contemporary tr...
Groups in Transactional Analysis, Object Relations, and Family Systems
Groups are arguably an essential and unavoidable part of our human lives—whether we are part of families, work teams, therapy groups, organizational systems, social clubs, or larger communities. In Groups in Transactional Analysis, Object Relations, and Family Systems: Studying Ourselves in Collective Life, N. Michel Landaiche, III addresses the intense feelings and unexamined beliefs that exist in relation to groups, and explores how to enhance learning, development and growth within them. Landaiche’s multidisciplinary perspective is grounded in the traditions of Eric Berne’s transactional analysis, Wilfred Bion’s group-as-a-whole model, and Murray Bowen’s family systems theory. T...
Transactional Analysis of Schizophrenia
In Transactional Analysis of Schizophrenia: The Naked Self, Zefiro Mellacqua presents a full assessment of the relevance and value of transactional analysis in understanding, conceptualizing and treating schizophrenia in contemporary clinical settings. Opening with a review of Eric Berne’s ideas, Mellacqua applies theory to the understanding and psychotherapeutic treatment of people suffering from first-episode schizophrenia and to those already living with more long-lasting psychotic levels of self-disturbance. The chapters address a series of crucial methodological themes, including the need for both intensive and extensive analytic sessions; the therapist’s tolerance of uncertainty an...
Il Sé Nudo
Zefiro Mellacqua, a partire dalla esperienza clinica e di ricerca, approfondisce la comprensione e il trattamento delle psicosi schizofreniche, attraverso il modello dell’Analisi Transazionale di Eric Berne, rileggendone i fondamenti in chiave contemporanea. Analizza i disturbi psichici gravi nell’ambito di “un sistema di psichiatria sociale e individuale”. L’autore sottolinea la prospettiva della psicoanalisi delle relazioni oggettuali e della psicoanalisi relazionale. Cruciali le tematiche esplorate: il bisogno di offrire tempo al paziente in psicosi con sedute analitiche frequenti; l’importanza per il terapeuta di tollerare l’incertezza; il legame fra transazioni silenti e comunicazione inconscia; l’attenzione agli stati affettivo-corporei nella relazione transferale e controtransferale, la qualità informativa dell’embodiment di terapeuta e paziente; la ricchezza dei significati emergenti nell’analisi dei sogni e nel “campo” della supervisione, quale necessario accompagnamento del processo terapeutico.
Fachsprachen – Fachkommunikation – fachdidaktische Diskurse
Aufgrund ihrer Spezifik, Einzigartigkeit und Vielfalt ziehen Fachsprachen sowie sämtliche mit ihnen verbundene Themenbereiche schon seit dem 18. Jahrhundert die Aufmerksamkeit der Sprachwissenschaftler: innen auf sich. Dieses Phänomen nimmt in den letzten Jahrzehnten deutlich zu, was auf wirtschaftliche Globalisierung sowie eine rasante Entwicklung des Arbeitsmarktes und das damit verbundene Entstehen immer neuer Berufe zurückzuführen ist. Der vorliegende Sammelband setzt sich zum Ziel, den Diskurs über Fachsprachen, Fachkommunikation sowie Fachsprachendidaktik zu ergänzen und zu bereichern. Die Autor:innen der einzelnen Beiträge nehmen differenzierte Aspekte unter die Lupe, wodurch d...
