Why Leading Schools Use Braverie
Instead, we were taken to a human-centered, respect-based way of understanding children who’ve experienced adversity. If you are on the fence about this training, jump now. You need to run - not walk- to Julia Rose.”
-- Francine Watson, Teacher & Professor
This training became a fundamental trajectory for my professional growth. It helped me realize why some of the things I was trying in the classroom weren’t working for my students. The strategies I learned in TCB were easily implemented into my classroom. The result? I most noticed the gain of self-confidence in my students. Because they felt more connected to and safe with me, they became more engaged in the classroom. The day I signed up for this training, my professional life changed.

My Admin Team went from ready to send a really challenging kid away to a different school, to learning how to respond to him differently, instead of just react to his behaviors. And guess what? That kid doesn’t have any of those issues anymore! It’s been a complete transformation of our school.”
-- Jeff Johnson, Director of Instruction
I was so relieved that my teachers were provided with practical and approachable ways to work with students with mental health needs. As a parent with a child who struggles with anxiety, I also felt more equipped with tools to help him at home. I recommend you enroll in this training right away!

This training made SUCH A DIFFERENCE!
When I have questions about trauma - I go to her. As a therapist who specializes in cognitive approaches with kids and adolescents, it deeply enhanced my work to learn how trauma literally changes a child’s brain function and their capacity to be in relationship with others. This has had a HUGE impact on how I work with kids, and even how I understand myself! Learning from her has made me exponentially better at what I do.” -- Katie Sarkarati, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Julia Rose’s conscious and intentional use of vulnerability helped me feel engaged and understood as an educator. I was taken along an emotional journey, which is at the heart of this work. I absolutely recommend this training.”
-- Denise Moody, Director of Innovation
TCB keeps teachers in the productive struggle and offers opportunities to practice in real-time.
She’s not just disseminating another intellectual theory, she’s really training us on how to practice this stuff in real-time, and I instantly felt like I could trust her because of that. This has helped me so much!” -- Erin Acarregui, Teacher
I now have proactive tools and feel more graceful and loving in my work with even my most challenging students. One in particular went from violent outbursts to total love and affection with me... the changes in how I show up have been outstanding!”
-- Tammy Barney, Teacher
This training has changed the way I teach.
Not to mention my students’ lives and the other teachers who have gone through this training with me. I already see the ripple effect and it is so amazing!” -- Theresa Savich, Teacher
