<p>Originally proposed by Dr. Stephen Karpman, M.D., the Karpman Drama Triangle and its relation to Dr. Eric Berne, M.D.’s Transactional Analysis, give a basic explanation and theory to help understand how we find difficulty in direct assertive communications. This can be used to help understand problems in boundaries, self esteem, communications, conflict, even the concept of self.</p> <p>Books I’ve referenced:<br> “A Game Free Life.
