Theoretical approaches:
My theory base is Transactional AnalysisSometimes called 'TA' for short, Transactional Analyisis is an integrative approach to counselling and psychotherapy, meaning that it integrates together elements of the psychoanalytic, humanist and cognitive approaches.
TA is a process to diagnose the ego states where verbal exchanges originate, as well as techniques to use this information to improve communication. It usually involves helping the client get in touch with internal parent/adult/child transactions that affect human behaviour. , which offers a way of understanding personality, behaviour and relationships - its practice is firmly grounded in a respectful therapeutichealing or helping to restore healthiness relationship. Clients are able to learn a comprehensive range of self-help tools, including relaxation and grounding techniquesGrounding techniques - often using the five senses (sound, touch, smell, taste, and sight) - are generally designed to bring the client back into an awareness of the 'here and now'. They are often used as a way of coping with flashbacks or dissociation.
For example, listening to loud music, holding onto a piece of ice, or biting into a lemon are all grounding techniques that produce sensations that are difficult to ignore, thereby directly and instantaneously connecting you with the present moment.
