Introductory day by Vivian Broughton: Fundaments of IOPT theory and practice

Introductory Day with Vivian Broughton
An experience of IOPT from a leading IOPT practitioner, teacher and author
in Utrecht, The Netherlands
This one-day introductory workshop is for anyone interested in:
– a (short) introduction in the IOPT framework of Franz Ruppert;
– how do {Love, Sex and Relationships} fit into the IOPT framework?
– what is the working method with IOPT about?
– how does the ‘sentence-of-intention’ work in practice?
– who is Vivian Broughton?
Vivian Broughton is Director of the Centre for Healthy Autonomy (London), is a long-time student of Professor Ruppert and his work and is an experienced IoPT psychotrauma practitioner.
She is the author of the book “Trauma and Identity” (2021). In this book Vivian Broughton brings together all the important theoretical concepts on the topics of trauma, trauma survival and identity, developed by Professor Dr Franz Ruppert over the past 30 years, known as Identity Oriented Psychotrauma Therapy (IOPT).
IOPT theory is based on a specific understanding of trauma and psychological splitting as the means of surviving trauma, and of the impact of traumatic experiences in the earliest stages of life. This includes the challenge to the child of surviving within the context in which he or she is conceived, gestated and born. Trauma is an experience that pays no attention to individual identity, and the cost to the child is a loss of self, a loss of identity.
This one-day introductory workshop is a unique opportunity to have an experience with the practice of IOPT and to see Vivian facilitating the work of SELF-encounter/ SELF-resonance. Vivian will offer the experience to a limited amount of people to work based on a “Sentence of Intention”. Others can be asked to resonate. Names will be drawn from a lottery.
Based on the experiences you might be interested to participate in a 1-year in-depth practitioner course in 2022 focussed on the IOPT theory and method (Professor Dr Franz Ruppert), led by Vivian Broughton.

Fundaments of Theory and Praxis of IOPT
A one-year course for practitioners in 2022 (in Utrecht, The Netherlands)
You are invited to participate in this 1-year in-depth practitioner course in 2022 focussed on the IOPT theory and method (Professor Dr Franz Ruppert), led by Vivian Broughton.
Vivian is Director of the Centre for Healthy Autonomy (London), is a long-time student of Professor Ruppert and his work and is an experienced IoPT psychotrauma practitioner and author of various handbooks on IoPT.
Identity-oriented Psychotrauma Therapy (IoPT):
IoPT theory is based on a specific understanding of trauma and psychological splitting as the means of surviving trauma, and of the impact of traumatic experiences in the earliest stages of life. This includes the challenge to the child of surviving within the context in which he or she is conceived, gestated and born. Trauma is an experience that pays no attention to individual identity, and the cost to the child is a loss of self, a loss of identity. This is why we call the work Identity-oriented Psychotrauma Therapy.
Focus of this course
This course is an introduction to IoPT theory and praxis, as developed by Professor Franz Ruppert (Munich) over the past thirty years. It is open to all those interested in the topic of trauma, who wish to explore their own personal issues in a safe, closed group.
We will work with the ‘Intention Method’ of Franz Ruppert as a way to discover your own personal trauma issues and the way to address them in your life. Together we will explore the impact that early trauma has on our psyche, and what we can do to redress its effect on our everyday lives.
You will learn about the theoretical and practical qualities of IoPT from Vivian Broughton by experiential personal work, alongside basic theoretical explanation and discussion. No prior experience is necessary – just a willingness to explore yourself, and this method, in a safe group setting.
This course can also be a useful starting point for anyone who is considering becoming an IoPT practitioner.
Practical as well as theoretical learning
The Course is a combination of learning at a practical as well as at a theoretical level; Theoretically we will address the following topics:
• WHAT IS PSYCHOTRAUMA? With a detailed look at the definition of trauma and its dynamics;
• IDENTITY AND THE SUBJECTIVE ‘I’ With a detailed look at what identity is, and the question: Who am I?
• WHAT IS THE PSYCHE? What do we mean by this word Psyche, how does it work, and why should we know?
• THE INTENTION METHOD: How can we resolve early traumas?
• THE TRAUMABIOGRAPHY: What is our traumabiography?
• PERPETRATORS & VICTIMS: The dynamics involving perpetration and victimisation
• SURVIVING TRAUMA: How to we survive traumatic experiences and manage our emotional reactions?
Personal as well as professional learning
The course will consist of a mix of personal exploration, presentations and discussion. We will work with the Intention Method as developed by Professor Franz Ruppert to explore participants’ personal issues so as to increase personal clarity and practical experience.
Using personal exploration, we will reflect on the processes from a practitioner’s perspective, bringing theory to life in practice. We will do this in relation to group and the private one-to-one setting.
There is a total of six books by Professor Ruppert covering his theoretical developments, and two by Vivian Broughton. These form the basic texts for the course.
As practitioners we will create a forum to work and learn together, to start to develop our facilitation skills, our understanding of the IoPT theory and to start to develop our practical experiences for guiding individual work.
Apart from the modules, guided by Vivian, there is an option of participating in a peer group (‘intervisie-groep’). Participation is optional. Dates are to be fixed.
