Steven Williams (fourth-year student):

"My experience training at TAC has been wholly positive and life-changing. I've been challenged and developed in ways I would not have imagined. I thank Rosalind and her team for the opportunity."

Holly Young (Exam Group)

“TAC offered me a place to grow both personally and professionally. It met my neurodivergent need for physicality- integrating the learning through mind and body.

Chdel Cooke (Exam Group)

'Authentic and congruent interactions between group members facilitated access to a deeper understanding of human relationship, which has brought the theory alive and provided insight into my personal and professional understanding of how and why people act as they do.'

James Sweeney, TAC Learning Facilitator:

You will need to bring yourself in all that you are and engage contactfully with your colleagues and tutors, take responsibility for your share of your learning process and bring your open curiosity about yourself, others and society.

Then be prepared to be amazed and deeply moved by yourself and those around you."

“If you’re considering training in Transactional Analysis, I cannot recommend TAC highly enough. It’s a place where you’ll be stretched, challenged, and grow in ways you never expected. A truly transformative experience.''

At Transactional Analysis Cymru, we are committed to working with the context of the environment to provide an excellent experiential and academic training in Transactional Analysis psychotherapy.

This means that we work with the body, mind and heart.

We also work within and outside the walls of the training center.

Because of our location, the woods and the mountains become part of our learning experience.

Students learn about relationships with the human and also the more than human.

Rob Titheridge (third-year student):

'Situated in the heart of the most seemingly magical and beautiful areas in the Preseli Mountains Pembrokeshire, TA Cymru is a unique and incredible place to undergo your very own amazing journey, training in Transitional Analysis.'

Julie Woods (first-year student):

'If you are considering this course, go for it, it will change your life. The course setting is beautiful within Ty Canol Woods, West Wales.

The kitchen is well equipped and feels like a home from home.'

Central to Transactional Analysis is Eric Berne's concept of the Ego States.

Berne developed this concept to explain the complex ‘voices’ that we all hear and act out.

Our location

Coming to TAC is a journey involving the mind, body and spirit.

Working with each other and with your clients is also a journey that can be mysterious. As clinicians, clients, supervisors, supervisees, teachers and students, we often have to learn to accept the journey of 'not knowing.'

This is reflected ecologically in where we are, and how you find us.

Geographically we are down an unmarked private lane on the side of a mountain surrounded by trees. It is peaceful here, and hard to find.

The track is paved and quite long - it twists and turns until the house and outlying barns are revealed.

There are hints..

The end of the track is named as 'Tycanol Farm' - but the Institute, Transactional Analysis Cymru is not mentioned.

In addition, the postal code 'SA413TZ' will take you to two cottages to the right of the end of our cattle grid and driveway.

Each year clients, supervisees, and trainees find their way here.

How will you find us?

Remember - you can always ask for directions!
