Resolve a child’s
trauma early
by learning how to apply

TIR with Children

TIR for Children is an excellent  workshop necessary for those practitioners that work with children, 
as well as those who would like to 
work with children. The
TIR Workshop for Children (TIRC)
will give every practitioner the
tools needed for resolving trauma
with children of all ages.


This 2-day workshop will teach TIR Facilitators* how to apply this evidence-based method with children. This technique incorporates the use of play with TIR. This is a structural, yet person-centered approach to resolving the emotional charge contained in a child's trauma and eliminating the negative aftereffects in a brief amount of time. This workshop also teaches Unblocking especially designed for children, in a language that they can understand.
