Permission, Protection, and Potency: The “Three Ps” Reconsidered.

Keith Tudor

Permission, Protection, and Potency:
The “Three Ps” Reconsidered.

In this recorded webinar, Keith Tudor revisits a core piece of Transactional Analysis theory — the “Three Ps” and explores how these concepts can be rethought not just as qualities and skills of the transactional analyst, but as guiding principles that underpin a two-person, relational psychology and psychotherapy.

Keith also discusses his expanded classification of permissions, offering fresh insights and practical reflections for clinicians.

This recording is ideal for transactional analysts interested in deepening their understanding of core TA concepts through a contemporary relational lens.

Watch at your own pace and revisit these foundational ideas anytime.

This webinar was originally recorded on the 11th May 2022 and is based on his article “Permission, protection, and potency: The three Ps reconsidered” which appeared in the Transactional Analysis Journal, l 2016, Vol 46, No 1.

Radical Psychiatry

Radical Psychiatry

Radical Psychiatry is a largely forgotten tradition within Transactional Analysis — once recognised as one of its early “schools,” yet rarely taught today. In this recorded webinar, Keith Tudor offers a clear and accessible introduction to Radical Psychiatry, tracing its history and outlining its key theory and practice, rooted in an analysis of power and oppression.

Keith also explores how Radical Psychiatry connects with other strands of TA, inviting practitioners to reconsider how this bold, critical approach can enrich their contemporary practice.

This recording is perfect for transactional analysts, psychotherapists, and mental health professionals curious about the intersections of social justice and power dynamics in TA.

Discover or rediscover Radical Psychiatry — and watch anytime at your own pace.

This webinar was originally recorded on the 3rd Dec 2022 and is based on his article Tudor. K. “Transactional Analysis and Politics: A Critical Review” (attached) and Tudor, K. (Ed.). (2020). Claude Steiner, emotional activist: The life and work of Claude Michel Steiner. Routledge.

Working Relationally with Loss and Grief

Aideen O’Hagan
Working Relationally with Loss and Grief

In this sensitively crafted two-part recording, filmed live at an IARTA event, respected psychotherapist Aideen O’Hagan offers a thoughtful and deeply relational exploration of what it means to accompany clients through loss and grief. Drawing on contemporary grief theory and her extensive clinical experience, she brings clarity, depth, and humanity to an area of practice that touches every clinician — and every life.

Across these sessions, Aideen introduces key frameworks that have shaped modern understandings of bereavement, including the Dual Process Model (Stroebe & Schut, 1999), Continuing Bonds theory (Klass & Silverman, 1996), and Darian Leader’s reflections on mourning (2009). These models serve as guiding maps, helping practitioners navigate the ever-shifting emotional landscape of grief with nuance and steadiness.

With warmth and clinical insight, Aideen explores how loss invites a process of reconnection, reinvention, and meaning making, and how working relationally can support clients in finding their own way through the pain of absence. She also reflects on the therapist’s inner world — emphasising that our ability to sit with another’s grief is shaped by our own encounters with loss. A therapist who has examined their own experiences can bear witness with greater presence, resonance, and emotional capacity.

The recording also addresses:

  • Why some individuals become stuck in grief
  • The challenges and complexities that arise in bereavement work
  • How to hold the therapeutic frame in the presence of intense emotional rupture
  • What clients need from a companion who can meet and honour the depth of their experience

This two-part video series is especially relevant for those in the psychotherapy and counselling fields, though practitioners from related disciplines may also find it invaluable.

Watch anytime, anywhere — as you explore the conversations that refuse to stay silent — and discover how they can transform your relational practice.
