Interview with Pedro Lechuga-Farias

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?

Who am I in a Traumatised & Traumatising Society? - Franz Ruppert... Out Now!

Franz's latest book is part personal account, and part an update of his theoretical thinking particularly as it relates to our society.

Identity-oriented Psychotrauma Therapyn (IoPT), the development of Professor Dr Franz Ruppert over the last 25 years, is established now as a new way of thinking about trauma, its influence in our individual lives, and now, in this book, looking at the influence of trauma on our societies as a whole.

And.... The 'Rainbow Book' is Travelling!

Now out in Russian... this little book is having an adventurous life...

The original English title is

BECOMING YOUR TRUE SELF... the journey from trauma to healthy autonomy...

Available from all online bookshops.

BECOMING YOUR TRUE SELF... the journey from trauma to healthy autonomy

by Vivian Broughjton

Drawings by Karen McMillan

Published by Green Balloon Publishing, UK.

The 'rainbow book' is also venturing online... I have done three videos based on this book which you can access here.

On the Trauma of Identity and the Trauma of Love:

"As the mother’s psyche is split, so her heart is split also."

(From my forthcoming book, Who Am I? - Trauma & Identity, due out late 2020)

Personal statement: I am a psychotrauma therapist (originally a Gestalt psychotherapist) with over 30 years experience. My passion is working with people where there is the possibility of real, healthy emotional contact, where truth is honoured, and reality takes precedence over illusions. For more about me click here.

"All the trauma in the world comes originally from children trying to adjust to environments that are sometimes crazily impossible for them to understand and manage."

Taken from my next book, due out late 2020.

Khalil Gibran

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.

They come through you but not from you,

And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you.

Khalil Gibran, The Prophet

"Be in love with your life. Every minute of it." Jack Kerouac.

What is the purpose of Life?

To live a good life, and to come to know who I really am.

"There are so many people in the world who have a good amount of 'healthy I'; it's just that they also have unresolved trauma and slide so easily into their survival strategies and ruin it all for themselves." (Vivian)
