Welcome to my website.
Please note that I am only available to work with people on their personal issues at the Online Working Sessions days (approximately every fortnight) or the Men's Group Online (once a month). I do not do individual sessions now.
I am semi-retired now, and apart from the two events mentioned above, all my work is in the capacity of professional teaching, support and supervision with IoPT student practitioners. Information about this work is on the IoPT Practitioner Events website.

‘LIVING A GOOD LIFE’ AND OTHER IoPT ESSAYS AND THOUGHTS by VIVIAN BROUGHTON
6th International IOPT Congress
14, 15, 16 October 2022
The next IOPT Congress will take place on the above dates, and will be a hybrid (in person and online) event. For full details and to register click here.
The lectures and live sessions will take place at Englmannstr. 2 in Munich. There will be space for 50 participants. What happens there will be immediately made available on ZOOM.
Places in the Englmannstr. 2 in Munich cannot be booked. Booking is only possible for online-participation.
You can participate online either individually at home, or as a group in private meeting rooms or in the practice centres of IoPT-practitioners. It would be helpful if there is a big screen or a technical device so you can project the live-events in Munich for the group.
We now have a global website for anyone interested in IOPT (Identity Oriented Psychotrauma Therapy). Whether you are already 'IOPT-Informed', or are at the 'IOPT-Interested' stage, you are all welcome to join our global hub website.
This website enables people to be in touch with each other across the world, to come together, share our interests and ideas and learn more about ourselves and IOPT philosophy and therapy. Please join! We welcome you to join the IOPT Movement! https://ioptinformedsocieties.com/
Welcome to the world of IOPT... to a world in which we can heal trauma, and start to recognise, and avoid, the dynamics of perpetration and victimisation....
If you are new to this work...
You can join one of the Online Working Sessions days with an Attendance Place, and watch what happens. It is up to you how much you take part, and it is fine if you just watch the processes and see how the Intention Method works. If you have any questions you can contact me.
Here is a Podcast I did with Business Coach Juliette Lee on the topic of Healing the Trauma of Identity... Here is the link
Trauma and Identity
My latest book, Trauma and Identity: Identity Oriented Psychotrauma Therapy, Theory and Practice:
In this book I have attempted to draw together in one place all of the important theoretical ideas developed by Franz Ruppert, together with my own reflections and experiences of working as an IOPT Psychotrauma practitioner.
Becoming Your True Self is on video!
I have done a series of three videos based on this book:
Video 1 - Talking about Trauma
Video 2 - Beginnings
Video 3 - Healing Trauma?
