"Teresa Descilo’s TIR workshop is a truly valuable professional learning experience. This is one of those all-too-rare workshops that goes beyond concepts and theory to provide concrete instruction and practice in applied intervention skills. I strongly recommend it for any practitioner who works with clients with post-traumatic stress disorder.”
