Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI)
Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) is a therapeutic approach developed by Dr. Karyn Purvis and Dr. David Cross designed to support children who have experienced trauma, neglect, or attachment disruptions. TBRI focuses on building trust and establishing a secure relationship between caregivers and children through three primary principles: Connecting (establishing trust and bonding), Empowering (meeting the childs physical and emotional needs), and Correcting (addressing behavioral issues in a supportive manner). The goal of TBRI is to promote healing and improve emotional regulation, helping children develop healthier relationships and behaviors.
Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP)
Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) is a therapeutic approach designed to support the mental health and well-being of young children and their caregivers, particularly in the context of trauma or attachment disruptions. Developed by Alicia Lieberman and Patricia Van Horn, CPP focuses on improving the parent-child relationship by addressing the impact of trauma on both the child and the caregiver. The therapy involves working with both the child and the parent or caregiver to enhance emotional communication, strengthen attachment, and promote healthy interactions. The goal of CPP is to foster a supportive and nurturing environment that aids the child’s emotional and psychological recovery.
