Actually, Dr. Brian Post introduced me to concept of childhood trauma effects when he did a workshop in Louisville KY in late 1990's https://postinstitute.com/

Heather Forbes, https://www.beyondconsequences.com/  learned from Brian then spun off on her own

As a newly adoptive Mom, I attended a conference in Nashville in 2009; it was first "Empowered to Connect" training https://empoweredtoconnect.org/training/ sponsored by Show Hope.  Show Hope has some TBRI videos at https://showhope.org/2020/08/1...gies-with-cindy-lee/ (play list of these videos on YouTube https://youtu.be/qmGfvZC5Q6Q ) This was based on book The Connected Child & the work of late Dr. Karen Purvis, whose legacy goes on at TCU https://child.tcu.edu/ most notably for your question https://child.tcu.edu/about-us/tbri/  Other resources are on the TCU site:  https://child.tcu.edu/store/healing-families-dvds/ Work is carried on by her colleague at TCU Dr. David Cross https://allriseforchildren.com...-executive-producer/
