The Script System and Beyond

In this workshop we will explore how to use the Script System (O’Reilly-Knapp and Erskine, 2003) as a diagnostic tool both with and without the client. We will go on to link other TA and non-TA theories with this model.

We will go onto explore what are the next TA models the Script system can lead into such as Trautmann & Erskine’s ‘Relation Needs’ (1996), and Hardaden and Sills, (2002) 'Undeveloped Self Model’ - leading us to consider the clients multiplicity of self.

Throughout this workshop we will be considering how we can apply these models practically in our client work.
