While the TIP Foundations Training is not a formal prerequisite, it is highly recommended. This training builds upon its core concepts, deepening your understanding of procedural, event, and semantic memory as they appear in transference dynamics.
That said, practitioners with backgrounds in somatic or transference-based work are very welcome, even if they haven’t taken the TIP Foundations course.

5-Day In-Person Workshop.
This will be followed by 10 two-hour Learning Modules, 2 per month for 5 months (20 hours).
The full length of the TIP Transference training is just under 6 months.

“This course introduced me to a coherent, science and theory based model to facilitate true healing. Both the skills we were taught and the theory behind them have already profoundly affected and improved my practice. And, it helped me recognize remaining wounds needing attention and grasping better what that attention needs to be for my own continued healing journey.”

The Trauma Integration Protocol Manual
Newly updated for 2026. This book is a guide for psychotherapists who work with the impact of traumatic events on individuals and their relationships. It draws on the work of many traditions and experts and is grounded, when possible, in our growing understanding of the brain and the mind. Written as a self-help and skill-building tool for therapists, this manual exists to build one’s ability to stay in rapport with others and to be able to better relate to them.
A recommended resource for all TIP training courses, this manual aids both practitioners and clients in their journey to resolve trauma and its symptoms.
