Conversations tend to go one of three ways.

▶️It lands - both people leave feeling understood.
▶️It derails - a practical question gets a reactive response and suddenly nobody's quite sure what just happened.
▶️Or there's a hidden message running underneath the surface one, and that's the one doing the real work.

Most of us have experienced all three - sometimes all happening in the same conversation.

Sound familiar?

Transactional Analysis is a framework that helps you understand why - and what to do differently.
If you've never come across TA before, our TA101 is a two-day introduction that's relevant well beyond the therapy setting. Coaches, managers, HR professionals and educators find it just as useful.

Supervision rarely produces dramatic breakthroughs. More often, it produces something much more subtle - a formulation softens, an assumption loosens, an emotional response becomes a little clearer.

The question isn't really whether supervision was useful. It's what happens next. Because integration doesn't happen automatically. The widened perspective that supervision offered can contract very quickly once the next client arrives and attention pulls back toward what feels most urgent. The insight that felt significant in the supervision session can fade before it has a chance to reshape anything.

We've been thinking about this - about the space between supervision and the next session, and what it takes to actually carry insight into practice. There's a short post on the blog, and a free downloadable reflection sheet if you'd find a structured pause useful. Link to the article in the comments

Ending the week with this feedback from one of our attendees.

What matters most to me - and the other trainers at Northside - is creating a space where people can think, question, reflect, develop — and actually integrate what they’re learning.

We are so thankful for the wonderful people on our courses who get involved to help make that great learning environment possible.
If that is you - thank you!

What shifts when we widen the frame of therapy?

In February’s Cup of TEA workshop from Northside Training, we'll be looking outward — from the individual in the therapy room to the wider contexts shaping both our clients’ lives and our own.

Wednesday 18th February 6 - 8pm online. Facilitated by Andy Williams. Link to book is below.

What shifts when we widen the frame of therapy?

In February’s Cup of TEA workshop, we turn our attention outward — from the individual in the therapy room to the wider contexts shaping both our clients’ lives and our own.

Drawing on Eco-TA principles we explore a practical question:

How does our work change when we include the wider context in the therapeutic frame?

We’ll unpack key ideas :

🌿 Ecological selfhood — the understanding that identity is shaped not only by family and relationships, but also by place, landscape, climate, and experiences of belonging.

🌿 Eco-scripts — the often unconscious stories we carry about our relationship to the world.

🌿 What “systemic” really means when we extend beyond interpersonal networks into ecosystems.

We'll be considering application — through case reflection, dialogue, and shared exploration:

– Where is the ecological dimension already present in your clinical work?
– How might recognising it shift your ethics, agency, and therapeutic stance?
– What becomes visible when we see clients as embedded in living systems rather than isolated psyches?

Widening the frame of the work you already do — expanding your clinical awareness to include the systems shaping your clients’ lives.
