Q: How long have you been a TIR trainer?

A: I became a TIR trainer in 2017.
Q: What inspired you to become a TIR trainer?
A: I am currently working at my local Community Mental Health Center assisting clients to resolve their traumas using Traumatic Incident Reduction. Since I became the agency’s first trauma specialist, news traveled quickly throughout the community and the agency began receiving ‘trauma’ referrals from drug court, mental health court, and even Department of Children and Families. I’m very lucky to be working where I am because the administrative staff has been very supportive and quick to recognize the need to ensure other clinicians were provided the opportunity to learn and facilitate the evidenced based practice of TIR. This lead to my getting certified as a TIR Trainer.

Q: What do you find rewarding about it?
A: TIR is a life changing technique for both the client and the facilitator. As a facilitator, going through the process yourself prepares you to be more present for the client, less reactive to his/her story, and extremely optimistic that clients can and will resolve their own traumas without your interpretation, judgment, or analysis. The more people we train to facilitate TIR, the more people there will be who can return to their lives and feel free of past traumatic experiences.

Q: Are you willing to travel to deliver training, if so under what conditions?
A: Traveling is not in my immediate plans. I admire and applaud my colleagues and their abilities to travel abroad to teach TIR and the ‘art’ of helping each other

Q: Describe your professional background.
A: During my first internship in the Master’s program of Social Work at Barry University, I was accepted as an intern at Trauma Resolution Center in Miami, FL. (aka; Victim Services Center), a private non-profit agency that provided free trauma resolution therapy to victims of crime. During the nine years I worked for the agency I was able to provide TIR to people from over 32 different countries under the guidance of my mentor and friend Teresa Descilo. After I left Miami to return to Naples, Fl , I worked for hospice for two years and am now at my local community mental health center providing TIR.
