I have an assessment with them on Thursday for the IOP. There's loads of info about him on google, I have most of his books, and have sat in several lectures about the trauma model that he's given. I'm just wondering if anyone has a personal perspective they'd like to share?

i can tell you that he does not care much for young alters.
I am not fond of him personally, but he does know mostly what he is doing.

I’d tread with caution. Some stuff he believed and did with patients is way to creepy, to say the least. But maybe this institute itself isn’t necessarily this way, he likely isn’t practicing anymore.

I have never heard of him so I googled him. From his Wikipedia page: "his own assertion that he can harness chi energy from his eyes to manipulate electronics". Sounds like a sensible and reliable chap.
Thanks for this!

I think it sounds like a lot of hokum -but if it is hokum that helps you -why not. None of it is science. I personally like guided imagery to help me sleep - the calm reading voice of the reader can lull me to sleep. I find the actual messages in what they are saying to be ridiculous and complete hokumery- but there is a use for me with it any way. I would view this guy that same way.
