About Transactional Analysis

A framework for understanding yourself & your relationships

Transactional Analysis (TA) is a powerful psychological framework that helps people understand themselves and their relationships more deeply. It offers practical insights into why we think, feel, and behave the way we do, and how our life experiences shape the stories we tell ourselves.

Simple, relatable, and easy to apply, TA explains everyday behaviours, communication patterns, and relationship dynamics in a way that empowers people to make conscious choices and create meaningful change.

Why It Matters

A humanistic, practical approach

Understand Patterns

As a humanistic approach, TA provides a comprehensive understanding of personality, emotional development, communication, and life patterns.

Build Self-Awareness

It serves as a practical guide for building self-awareness, improving relationships, and fostering personal and professional growth.

Trusted Framework

Developed by psychiatrist Dr. Eric Berne, TA continues to be one of the most influential and widely used frameworks across education, counselling, coaching, psychotherapy, and organizational development.

In Practice

How Mindful Mirror uses TA

Aishwarya integrates TA with mindfulness and experiential learning to help participants explore the deeper patterns, beliefs, and narratives that shape their thoughts, emotions, and relationships — always inside a safe, non-judgmental space.
