TY - JOUR AU - Clark, Barbara D. AB - Transactions are reviewed with reference to Berne's original principles of treatment. Three conclusions are presented: (1) different developmental levels of ego states can be evoked through the therapist's technical choices during each phase of treatment, (2) a conceptual bridge between theory and practice is presented through the introduction of empathic transactions, and (3) a recommendation is made that increased emphasis be put on the empathic deconfusion of the Child ego states in order to reach Berne's goal of a comprehensive treatment approach.
