My original training in mediation practice was at Leicestershire Mediation Service where I worked as a part time volunteer mediating disputes between “neighbours from hell” and in training new volunteers. My certificated training was with Midlands Mediation Services in 2002. I have now had substantial experience working with organisations and couples.
My training and experience as a counsellor enables me to relate to protagonists empathically [and keep them 'onside' with me] whilst my TA psychotherapy training enables me to respond appropriately to what is happening between the protagonists in the mediation process.
TA is a brilliant model for working with conflict since it is all about the way individuals transact [communicate] with each other and the internal psychological processes which dictate ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. More about TA
