Certification Training Program in Transactional Analysis and Redecision Therapy
Chapel Hill
This is a comprehensive, training program integrating the approaches of Transactional Analysis, Gestalt, Redecision Therapy, Object Relations, Systems Theory, Developmental Theory, Personality Adaptations, Body Work, and Energy Psychology. We offer a very powerful short-term approach that integrates cognitive, behavioral, and affective techniques. The focus of the training is on developing a broad conceptual framework and mastering effective techniques for individual, couple, family, and group therapy. The program meets on a Friday and Saturday once a month for ten months and is designed on a two-year cycle. Enrollment is on a semester basis. Certification as a TA Practitioner requires the TA 101 Course and ten months of training. Certification as a Redecision Therapist requires twenty months of training, a written exam, and a tape demonstrating one’s competency in Redecision Therapy. In Nashville and Louisville, the program meets every other month. In Asheville and Hickory it meets one day a month. The program consists of theory, demonstration, supervision, and experiential work. Our experience is that individuals learn best by having an opportunity to practice what they are learning and get direct supervision of their work. Therefore we have participants work directly with one another using video to enhance the supervision. Participants also have the opportunity to do personal work with the faculty and observe them working with others. Supervision and training credits are provided for the USA TA Association, the International Transactional Analysis Association, and the American Group Psychotherapy Association. Supervision is also provided for individuals pursuing licensing in Marriage and Family Therapy and Professional Counseling.
