I work using Transactional Analysis (TA), a talking therapy that explores your personality and how it has been shaped by your experiences.
Part of what I enjoy about TA is that clients can learn its ideas as we go. Over time, many people start to recognise for themselves when an old, younger way of reacting takes over, and to choose a more grounded response instead.
