Building Trust, Transforming Lives: A TBRI Exploration
Daren Jones | TBRI | Karen Purvis Institute of Child Development
Unlock the power of Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) in this dynamic pre-conference session. TBRI® is an attachment-based, trauma-informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of vulnerable children. TBRI® uses Empowering Principles to address physical needs, Connecting Principles for attachment needs, and Correcting Principles to disarm fear-based behaviors. While the intervention is based on years of attachment, sensory processing, and neuroscience research, the heartbeat of TBRI® is connection. From this session, you will gain insights into how trauma affects brain development and attachment and how we can use that knowledge to promote healing. Through case studies and interactive exercises, participants will explore practical strategies for responding to behaviors while moving towards connection in their home. Equip yourself with the tools to create a nurturing environment and positively impact the lives of children in your care.
