STAA: The Home of Scottish TA

The STAA is a member organisation open to anyone with an interest in Transactional Analysis in Scotland. 

We promote Scottish issues at a UK level with UKATA and UKCP. The increasing effects of devolution on the health sector makes advocating for Scotland's different approach to healthcare important in a changing context.
