Redecision therapy.
Redecision therapy has grown out of an amalgam of transactional analysis and Gestalt therapy along with extensive clinical experience. This approach as developed by the Gouldings presents a model that differs from group-focused therapy in a number of ways. The treatment is centered on the individual. The therapist takes an active role in the treatment and works within the contract for change of each individual. Many of the traditional concepts of group therapy like transference, cohesion, resistance, and group process are not used. The theory of transactional analysis serves as a conceptual core along with terms developed to describe the processes used in redecision therapy. Impasses, contact, cons, games, early decisions, anchoring, injunctions, and scripts are part of the lexicon of this treatment.
