Master Therapists At Work Educational Video
Series
This series was recorded during an all day
group session led successiveley by four well-known practitioners. They belong
to the first generation of therapists who learned directly from Eric Berne,
psychiatrist, author, and originator of transactional analysis. Grounded in a
lifetime of successful practice, these masters employ a persistent clarity that
helps people solve their problems. Clients rapidly come to recognize their
current life patterns and feel the potential empowerment of operating from a
better position. Most end by affirming: "Yes, I am important. I have a right to
ask for what I want and get my needs met." Each master therapist brings a
lifetime of successful practice to this demonstration of effective brief
therapy.
This series is available either in a two DVD
set or as individual videotapes. (Click on the photo to order an individual

Volume 1 This program demonstrates the
making of contracts, specific agreements for growth and change between
therapist and client. These are the beginning stage of many transactional
analysis groups. Muriel James creates an atmosphere of safety to interact with
group members. She helps them clarify what they need to do to get what they
want. In formulating self-contracts, they review events in their past,
recognize the elements of the present they need to change, and plan how to act
in order to achieve more successful futures.
Transactional analyst Muriel James has been a
lecturer and consultant in human relations around the world. Dr. James is
author or coauthor of 19 nonfiction books, including the classic best seller
Born to Win: Transactional Analysis with Gestalt Experiences,

right to exist, while Sally realizes one way to cope with a significant change
in her life situation. Jeanne surrenders to her grief over her husband's recent

Volume 3 This program focuses on the
significance of strokes, the positive recognition or love that people need for
their well-being. Therapist Claude Steiner shows group members how to resist
their Critical Parent's negative messages by giving each other and themselves
strokes. Phil reaffirms his grasp of earlier work alleviating his despair. When
Terri realizes she has felt undeserving to be alive, she asks for and receives
wanted strokes. Lois gets support in overcoming her embarrassment to declare
that she is indeed important. By disclaiming responsibility for bad things that
happen around her, Sally confronts parental injunctions. Jeanne believes she
has broken out in hives as result of opening to her feelings of grief.
An early disciple of Eric Berne, Claude Steiner became
his colleague, collaborator, and friend. Claude originated the Radical
Psychiatry movement, developed the theories of the stroke economy and the
script matrix, and leads emotional literacy trainings. His eight books include
Scripts People Live and the children's fable, The Warm Fuzzy
Tale. (49 minutes) |

Volume 4 This program illustrates
transactional analysis-redecision therapy to help clients change thoughts,
emotions, or behaviors in order to free them from the restraints of old
decisions. Therapist Mary Goulding also facilitates closure for group
participants. Touching Jean releases her grief and her hives disappear. Lois
creates a more effective inner Parent for her Child. Rick discovers his
parents' injunction Don't Be Excited! and redecides to express his natural
exhuberance. To conclude, Mary responds to questions from the audience about
the work they have seen.
Mary and Bob Goulding ran the Western Institute for
Group and Family Therapy in Watsonville, California, where they taught
redecision therapy to licensed practitioners from all over the world. The
Gouldings also conducted workshops in Europe, North and South America, and the
Far East. They wrote The Power is in the Patient and Changing
Lives through Redecision Therapy. (49 minutes) |
