Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) Expert Lindy Johnson Offers Help For Foster Parents
If you’re new to fostering you may be familiar with the the concept of “trauma,” but maybe you’re not sure where to start or how much you need to know. You want to understand enough to respond in a healing way when trauma’s effects show up in the children in your care.
Lindy Johnson is a TBRI-certified expert on trauma. She created this short, informal video series for America’s Kids Belong to give foster parents an overview of trauma through the lens of foster care.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Lindy’s heartbeat is to help others find healing and advocate for relational restoration. “I believe there is GREAT hope for our relational health when we are willing to do heart and hard work. I’ve seen the powerful freedom and restoration that can take place when we learn about trauma and attachment: concepts that most certainly touch each of our lives.”
