Learning Objectives: 

As a result of participating, the attendee will be able to:
1. Describe the three pillars of traumawise care.
2. Describe the framework of Trust-based Relational Intervention (TBRI).
3. Identify two opportunities for integrating TBRI principles into clinical practice.

Diversity statements: 

The presentation content respects and attends to cultural, individual and role differences, specifically related to Trust-based Relational Intervention (TBRI) within the content of biofeedback and neurofeedback as evidenced by the title, program description, learning objectives and references. TBRI is an inclusive model that appreciates and embraces the lived experiences and identities of people around the world, particularly those who are Black, Indigenous, or people of color.

Question  to reflect on diversity issues: In what ways does your work recognize and celebrate the cultural diversity present in TBRI’s global footprint? Do others have alternative viewpoints?
