Advancing knowledge and raising personal and social awareness through the theory of Transactional Analysis (TA) — for better self-understanding, healthier relationships, and a more fulfilling life.
Transactional Analysis (TA) is a theory of psychology introduced by Dr. Eric Berne in the 1950s. Thanks to its practical value in resolving emotional and behavioural problems, it was embraced by the psychology community and gradually expanded into counselling, psychoanalysis, group therapy, management, sociology, organisational development, and education. The ambiguity, complexity, and long treatment times of older psychotherapy methods meant that TA — with its clear core concepts and simple vocabulary — quickly became a popular alternative. Wherever people live and relate to one another, TA has found practical application as a tool for change and problem-solving. It is an applied scientific school that deliberately avoids complicated jargon: its ideas are presented in a way that anyone can observe and experience directly.
In TA, the environment and social relationships matter greatly — yet ultimately each person is responsible for their own life and behaviour, and accepting that responsibility is central. TA pays special attention both to a person's inner conflicts and to the relationships between people. Its core belief is that when people replace destructive, negative, and demeaning patterns with healthy, warm, and honest relationships, they reduce psychological pressure on themselves and others and enjoy life more.
Despite its simplicity, TA can bring order to complex, confused, and troubled thoughts and feelings. By separating and organising thoughts and emotions, a person gains better self-knowledge, becomes more aware of their strengths and weaknesses, and can choose healthy, constructive behaviours. TA also makes it possible to map the structure of personality as diagrams — so that anyone familiar with the method can read a diagram and understand the personality structure and interpersonal transactions it records.
Our courses, workshops and seminars are taught by lecturers and members of the International Transactional Analysis Association.
Instructor: Maziar Khadmian (member of the International Transactional Analysis Association)
Dates and times will be announced once the new course schedule is finalised.
Participants explore love through the lens of Transactional Analysis and the scientific work done to describe it. The course guides learners toward a better understanding of their emotions, choosing a life partner, and mapping their emotional future — and offers practical ways to build mutual understanding of feelings between partners.
