All About TBRI: Trust-Based Relational Intervention

Childhood trauma can have a lasting impact on a person’s life and development, especially if it involves disruptions in attachment relationships. TBRI is a holistic, trauma-informed approach that takes into account the unique needs of children who have experienced disruptions in attachment relationships.

TBRI focuses on creating a safe and secure environment where children can feel:

• Seen
• Heard
• Valued

One of the key elements of TBRI is promoting emotional regulation in children. This involves helping them identify their emotions, understand what triggers them, and learn how to manage their responses. This is accomplished through a variety of techniques, including deep breathing exercises, mindfulness activities, and sensory experiences.

These experiences help children develop a sense of comfort and security, which is essential for healing from past traumas and building healthy relationships.

Therapists are needed for TBRI (Trust-Based Relational Intervention) because they have the training and expertise to provide effective treatment for children who have experienced disruptions in attachment relationships. 

AOC therapists are trained to use this technique. If you’re considering TBRI for your child, contact us today.
