A Brief Description of TIR :
Traumatic Incident Reduction (TIR) is a non-evaluative, client-led
desensitization procedure that enables the client to undo repression and
increase awareness of past events that still effect his present. TIR
also responds to how traumatic experiences 'network' and identifies
other less obviously related incidents that can be complicit in the
maintenance of symptoms.
The 'Basic TIR workshop' is the first module of Level 1 TIR training.
TIR is best known for its effectiveness at permanently reducing the
symptoms of PTSD and other trauma related conditions.

TIR workshop module II Thematic TIR and Unblocking, 2 days (TIRW)
29-30th (Sat-Sun) January 2005
Early bird price: £180 if you book before November 10th
Full Fee: £220
Venue: Victim Support Lambeth, London SW9 6DE
This workshop completes the first level of TIR training. It includes the
second form of TIR - Thematic TIR. This is a method for reaching
traumatic incidents that the client is unaware he has. This workshop
also contains training in the Unblocking procedure, a method for
reducing stress in a general area of a client's life such as 'Your job',
'Your marriage'. It is also useful for preparing a client for more
intense exposure work. TIR is a client-led approach and therefore the
client decides what she is ready to confront. A training in TIR
grounding procedures is also contained in this workshop along with 8
exercises for training practitioners in controlling and optimising the
chemistry of the session for best results.
What UK mental health professionals are saying about TIR
"I am very impressed with the TIR model and it is something I will
continue to pursue."
Mike Fisher, Director of British Association of Anger Management
(Graduate of TIR level 1 training)
"Since I did the session on the training day [introductory 1 day
workshop] I can no longer feel the pain previously contained in that
memory. It really has gone permanently. I think there is a lot of new
age nonsense out there but TIR really does deliver. Thank you for
enlightening us."
Jeanette Lockethomson, Coordinator Victim Support Sutton
"I recently attended a Basic TIR workshop led by Henry Whitfield in
York. I've been quite sceptical about some approaches to trauma work,
but I must say that I am very impressed by what I have learned of TIR so
far. It's practical, easy to understand and immediately applicable to
work with clients. Henry is an excellent teacher, so the day was great
fun too! I'd been expecting quite a gruelling day, working with
difficult and painful material, so it was a great bonus to find that I
came away feeling energised and excited. I'm really looking forward to
learning more."
