Description
Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) is an attachment-based, trauma-informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of children who have experienced adversity, early harm, toxic stress, and/or trauma. TBRI is based on a foundation of attachment, sensory processing, and neuroscience research. TBRI consists of three sets of harmonious principles: (1) Empowering to address physical needs; (2) Connecting for attachment needs; and (3) Correcting to disarm fear-based behaviors.
TBRI is used worldwide in homes, residential facilities, group homes, schools, camps, schools, juvenile justice facilities, courts, with survivors of sex trafficking, in faith communities, courts, with law enforcement, in clinical practices, and other environments. TBRI is designed to be highly interactive and is delivered in-person by certified practitioners to provide practical tools for parents, caregivers, teachers, or anyone who works with children, to see the “whole child” in their care.
