TBRI®: Trust-Based Relational Intervention®

What is TBRI®? We are pleased to present a new video resource that answers that very question. It is our hope that the TBRI Animate will inspire parents and professionals across the world to bring deep healing to vulnerable children.

TBRI® Animate: Attachment

Young children use their attachment figure as a secure base for exploring understanding the world around them. The relationship between child and caregiver lays the groundwork for interpersonal connections throughout the lifespan. When attachment is derailed, children may display confusing behaviors and struggle to trust even loving, safe caregivers. Although this is a sobering reality, there is hope for these children. TBRI® is an attachment-based, trauma-informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of vulnerable children. By understanding the importance of attachment needs, we can help these children begin to trust the adults who care for them.
