The primordial images undergo ceaseless transformation and yet remain ever the same, but only in a new form can they be understood anew. Always they require a new interpretation if, as each formulation becomes obsolete, they are not to lose their spellbinding power.” Carl Jung The Psychology of Transference The endless cycle of idea and action, Endless invention, endless experiment, Brings knowledge of motion, but not of stillness; Knowledge of speech, but not of silence; Knowledge of words, and ignorance of the Word. T.S. Eliot The Rock “The essential problem is to know what is revealed to us not by any particular version of a symbol, but by the whole of symbolism.” Mercea Eliade The Rites and Symbols of Initiation “Francis Bacon never tired of contrasting hot and cool prose. Writing in ‘methods’ or complete packages, he contrasted with writing in aphorisms, or single observations such as ‘Revenge is a kind of wild justice. The passive consumer wants packages, but those, he suggested, who are concerned in pursuing knowledge and in seeking causes will resort to aphorisms, just because they are incomplete and require participation in depth.” Marshall McLuhan Understanding Media FRAIM / SS 2 To Eric McLuhan Relentless provocateur over the years FRAIM / SS 3 Contents Preface 8 Introduction 10 I. -

'We Are All Relational, but Are Some More Relational Than Others?'
‘We are all relational, but are some more relational than others?’ - completing the paradigm shift towards relationality by Michael Soth A Discussant Paper in response to: Ray Little: ‘The New Emerges out of the Old’ Building on Ray Little’s integration of humanistic TA with both traditional and relational psychoanalysis, this paper explores both shared ideas and assumptions as well as reflecting critically from the vantage point of a wider broad-spectrum integrative perspective, with an emphasis on TA’s sister tradition of Body Psychotherapy. The problems, inconsistencies and contradictions within the integrative project are discussed, with particular reference to our humanistic origins during the 1960’s and their – partially reactive - differentiation against psychoanalysis, which leaves us with unresolved legacies in the form of fixed assumptions regarding both theory and practice, and key concepts like ‘ego’ and ‘working alliance’. Taking the key notion of the therapist’s “equidistant position” between the “needed” and the “repeated” relationship as its starting point, this paper works towards ‘enactment’ as the central notion of relationality. In the process, a multiplicity of diverse therapeutic kinds of relatedness is affirmed as valid, and different notions of the ‘relational’ and inconsistencies and ambivalences in our integrative formulations are addressed. The aim is a more solid and robust integration which is grounded in a bodymind understanding of enactment as the paradoxical essence of therapeutic action. Introduction It would also need to imply a significantly wider range of approaches from across the therapeutic Ray Little has been doing an urgent, significant and spectrum coming to the ‘integrated’ party. sterling job, bringing together TA and Considering that psychotherapy integration has psychoanalysis (especially its relational branch). -

http://www.cjmb.org Open Access Original Article Crescent Journal of Medical and Biological Sciences Vol. 6, No. 3, July 2019, 375–380 eISSN 2148-9696 The Effect of Transactional Analysis Group Behavioral Therapy on Infertile Women’s Marital Satisfaction Atefeh Haghighi Cheli1 ID , Jamileh Mohtashami2* ID , Shahrzad Zadehmodares3, Zahra Arabborzu4 Abstract Objectives: Infertility causes psychological problems in infertile patients and exerts adverse effects on the marital life of couples. Therefore, the present study investigated the effects of transactional analysis (TA) group behavioral therapy on marital satisfaction of infertile women. Materials and Methods: This before/after controlled trial was conducted on 30 infertile women referring to in vitro fertilization ward of Mahdieh hospital of Tehran in 2018. Patients were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. The intervention group underwent TA for 4 weeks while the control group only received the routine treatment. Data were gleaned from Four ENRICH Couples Scale and analyzed by the SPSS software version 22.0 using independent and paired t-tests. Results: The results of the paired t test showed a significant difference between the 2 groups after the intervention P( = 0.001) compared to before the intervention while no significant change was observed in the control group (P = 0.789). In addition, independent t-test indicated no significant change in the control group after the intervention P( = 0.000) compared to before intervention (P = 0.949). Conclusions: In general, training in TA group behavioral therapy significantly increased marital satisfaction in the intervention group compared to the control group. Accordingly, the TA can serve as a useful treatment for infertile women. -

Transactional Analysis Report By: Dennice Reeze Zaballero Counseling Psychology Wed.(10Am-1Pm)
Transactional Analysis Report By: Dennice Reeze Zaballero Counseling Psychology Wed.(10am-1pm) Successful Professional Salespeople… • Are psychologists first, being students of ‘people’, sensitive to feelings and emotions, not anxious to rush into a presentation until they know the kind of person they are dealing with. What Does That Mean? • This morning, John said to Mary, “Why don’t I take you to dinner tonight?” Explain what John meant likely depended on how he asked the question. Honey, Have You Seen My Car Keys? • Harry and Wilma are husband and wife. One morning, Harry is running late for work and can’t find his car keys. When he asks for Wilma’s assistance in finding them, they eventually get into an argument. Who’s fault was it? Well, It Worked the Last Time • Charlene had a very successful sales call when she called on Herman. She had ‘tons’ of information and Herman was seemingly interested in every detail, every number, every fact. When she gave the same presentation on her next stop with Paul it backfired. What went wrong and why? HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Transactional analysis was originally developed by the late Eric Berne (1961), who was trained as a Freudian psychoanalyst and psychiatrist. TA evolved out of Berne’s dissatisfaction with the slowness of psychoanalysis in curing people of their problems. Berne’s major objections to psychoanalysis were that it was time consuming, complex, and poorly communicated to clients. Historically, TA developed as an extension of psychoanalysis with concepts and techniques especially designed for group treatment. Berne discovered that by using TA his clients were making significant changes in their lives. -

Self-Discovery the Jungian Way
Self-discovery the Jungian way Clearly and entertainingly written, Self-discovery the Jungian way presents an exciting new technique of self-analysis. Based on the psychological theories of C.G. Jung, the ‘Watchword’ technique will enable you to identify your psychological type and to explore the structure and dynamics of your personality. As you learn to recognize the various forces and tendencies within the psyche, you will acquire greater understanding of your inner self and your personal relationships. This practical method of self-exploration guides you systematically along the difficult path towards the ultimate goal of self-realization or individuation. It uses a structured form of word association which you assess and interpret yourself, following simple guidelines that require no numerical scoring. Easy to understand and fun to use, the book makes an intriguing and useful introductory guide to Jungian analytical psychology. It will appeal to a wide range of readers, including professional psychologists and students of psychology, counsellors and psychotherapists, as well as anyone interested in self-exploration and personal growth. Michael Daniels PhD is a chartered psychologist with a longstanding interest in Jungian psychology, self-actualization, transpersonal psychology and psychical research. Now retired, he was formerly Senior Lecturer in Psychology and Co-director of the Consciousness and Transpersonal Psychology Research Unit at Liverpool John Moores University. He also trained and practised for six years as an honorary psychotherapist (psychodynamic) within the National Health Service. He is the author of more than 30 academic articles and chapters, and of Shadow, Self, Spirit: Essays in Transpersonal Psychology (Exeter: Imprint Academic, 2005). -
