Synopsis

Theories and Methods of an Integrative Transactional Analysis offers a collection of writings by world-renowned transactional analyst Richard G. Erskine, Ph.D. Published between 1973 and 1997, these 28 articles demonstrate the growth and development of his ideas about psychotherapy, transactional analysis, supervision, and many related topics. Dr. Erskine, well-known for his work on the central role of the client/therapist relationship in psychotherapy, reveals the evolution of his ideas from his early days in transactional analysis to his eventual integration of concepts from transactional analysis, Gestalt therapy, and psychoanalytic theories such as object relations, self psychology, and the intersubjective approach. The result of this theoretical and clinical synthesis is a powerful psychotherapeutic theory and method--contact-based and developmentally oriented--that is the hallmark of an integrative transactional analysis.
