fullcircle learning collective
We are four transactional analysis trainers, supervisors, practitioners and friends.
We offer a series of learning circles; developmental group experiences to support practitioners to build their competence as psychotherapists, supervisors and trainers.
We are committed to the development of an ethical and competent community of practitioners. We support practitioners to expand their capacity to hold their own mind, respect difference and context, and relate potently from that position.

Integrate these aspects into a cohesive professional identity and philosophy of practice.
Build a collective sense of community and mutual support.

Our story
We are four TA practitioners - Beren, Bev, Helen and Ronen - who met in our professional world, and after knowing and working with each other for many years we have become friends as well as colleagues.
We had the idea to come together, making use of our different individual skills and combined energy, to create learning and development spaces for people who work as psychotherapists and counsellors.
The sense of trust and of holding our own minds within mutually constructed processes were themes that kept coming up for us. A sharing of leadership, responsibility and power was another strand. Out of this the idea of our joint venture being a collective emerged.
Ongoing, lifelong learning is a passion for all of us. We all teach, and we all learn each time. The mutuality of this process is another pillar for us, so we nailed down that we wanted to be a learning collective.
As we sat in a circle talking together about what we'd like to call ourselves as a working group we realised the importance for each of us of this circular space. A space in which we could voice and explore ideas robustly and with respect and interest, share responsibility, and get curious about our relational edges.
We realised that we had created a learning circle. Something clunked into place for each of us, linking to collective and co-operative learning experiences we’d had, with circles of others. We also thought of the circular and spiral process of the completion of cycles, contracts, and learning processes.
From this came the word fullcircle, which captures the process and completed the name for our venture -

We will be developing new learning circles for different purposes. Stay in touch…
