Stories, faces, transactional analysis

In June 2025, a group of TA psychologists organized a conference titled ”Transactional Analysis after Eric Berne: Stories in Faces”. Each participant chose a figure significant to the TA community and spoke about them, their concepts, and the intertwining of the personal and professional. Thus, the spotlight was placed on Jacqui Lee Schiff, Fanita English, Tony White, Ken Mellor, Ray Little and Karen Minikin. In the lead-up to the conference, three meetings were held. During the first one, the importance of understanding the history of TA’s development was discussed. The focus of the second meeting was on the mutual influence between the personal and professional aspects of a psychologist’s work. The third meeting addressed the specifics of the script of the TA community in Russia. Recordings of all meetings, conference talks, and announcements are available at: https://tatoday.tilda.ws/.
