There is hope—
Connection is within reach.

Therapy grounded in TBRI® in Owasso and the greater Tulsa area, or by telehealth across Oklahoma,
can help you build connection that leads to lasting change.

Connection and hope sometimes feel out of reach.

You’re trying.
Really trying. And have been for years.

You love your child. You’ve given them stability, structure, and everything you know how to give. So why isn’t anything working? You’ve wondered: Is it me? Is it my child? What am I missing?

You might find that you are:

• Beginning to wonder if anything will work

• Walking on eggshells, wondering what’s going to go wrong next

• Dreading the phone call from the school or daycare

• Trying every parenting intervention, tip, trick, and hack you can find, and feeling more discouraged after each one

• Wondering if you even like your child anymore

• Beginning to be afraid, really afraid, of what life might be like if this doesn’t change

• Carrying guilt, confusion, or the sense that you’re missing something

Not everything works for every family. Therapy grounded in TBRI® in Owasso, Oklahoma offers something different, especially for children who have experienced trauma, stress, or early (even prenatal) adversity.

Connection changes everything.

TBRI^® is an attachment-based, trauma-informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of vulnerable children. TBRI^® uses:

Empowering Principles to address physical needs
Connecting Principles for attachment needs
Correcting Principles to disarm fear-based behaviors.

While the intervention is based on years of attachment, sensory processing, and neuroscience research, the heartbeat of TBRI® is connection.

TBRI^® is built on a simple but powerful idea:
Behavior makes sense when you understand what’s beneath it.

Instead of asking: “How do I stop this behavior?” we start asking “What is my child trying to communicate— and what do they need right now?”

Understanding leads to deep empathy. Deep empathy does not excuse— or allow— unsafe or unacceptable behavior. It does give you a foundation to work from— one that holds your child to high expectations while meeting their deepest needs, so they can grow into their full potential. TBRI® focuses on both nurture (so your child feels safe and understood on the deepest levels) and structure (so your home is predictable and safe, while your child is prepared for the future).

TBRI® is often useful for parents, guardians, and caregivers of children from hard places– those who have experienced traumatic events, high levels of stress, adversity, and early harm— including prenatal stress. Families formed through adoption, foster care, and guardianship often seek out TBRI® due to its roots in helping children from hard places.

However, TBRI® can be useful anytime parents, guardians, or caregivers want to understand, and respond effectively to, their child’s behavior. If you’re looking to build stronger, more trusting relationships and see your child reach their full potential, TBRI® can provide practical tools and strategies that you can start implementing today.

Connection is a basic need, shared by every one of us regardless of age or life situation– TBRI® is an evidence-based pathway for creating connection, hope, and renewed relationship.

What if you could…

• Understand your own childhood experiences in a new light

• Be more confident as a parent

• Understand your child’s behavior instead of feeling controlled by it

• Rebuild trust and connection after hard moments

• Have a plan for when things get hard, and the skills to follow it.

• Learn the deep empathy that allows you to connect with your child

• Offer your child the right balance of nurture and structure to create safety, and change.

If you’re raising, loving, or caring for a child— and something isn’t working the way you hoped—
There is a way forward. Hope is still possible for you and your family.

Connection can be built.

Hope is your next choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

No.

TBRI® was originally developed for children from hard places, including adoption and foster care. But the principles apply to any child.

If your child is struggling— and what you’ve tried isn’t working— this approach can help you understand what’s going on and what to do next.

You can also use TBRI to better understand your own experiences, and how they shape you as a person and as a parent.

No.
Because your child isn’t broken. Your child has responses— based on their experiences— that have helped them feel safe and in control of their world. Those patterns make sense, even if they’re no longer working today.

TBRI® doesn’t focus on quick behavior fixes. Rather, it focuses on what’s underneath the behavior: when the underlying needs are met, the surface behavior changes. Not quickly, not all at once, but in the small increments that are the hallmark of real, lasting change.

That said, you will learn some things you can begin using right away, in the first days or weeks of our work together. While overall change is slow, some shifts happen quickly— for both you and your child.

That’s usually when you find your way here, looking at solutions like TBRI®, trying to find something different.

TBRI® isn’t just another strategy to try. It’s a different way of understanding your child and responding to their behavior. This is foundational work— not surface level change.

And real change is possible, for every child and family.

Absolutely not.

This work is not about blame, it’s about understanding. We are all doing the best we can, with the information we have at the time. There’s no shame or judgement here.

This is a place for understanding, growth, and learning. Parenting doesn’t require you to have all the answers— it requires a willingness to keep showing up, to keep learning, and to keep trying.

And when you’re willing to do that— even when things feel overwhelming— you and your child both have real reason for hope.
