Method: 103 health professionals, psychologists and social workers, anonymously answered a questionnaire, their responses were correlated to the fact that these whether they have participated in a training process. Results: The sample was composed predominantly by women with a mean age of 47 years.

Among professionals not trained the main difficulty mentioned was the belief that this procedure is not efficient for adolescents in social and educational context (29%). Similarly, considering the professional actuation time, the mean score on the conceptual issues did not differ between the groups that received and did not receive the training. Conclusion: In general, it is observed that the difficulties in implementing the TIB overlap the technical and conceptual aspect and although they have been trained, this as a unique procedure, proved insufficient to equip professionals to face the present challenges in the social and educational context .
