ForwardTopic Support Group: TBRI Connected Therapist Book Club, Relating Through the Senses - 02/05/24 - 02/26/24 - Webinar
The Alliance CaRES team invites you to join us for Book Club!
We will be diving into "The Connected Therapist, Relating Through the Senses”, by Marti Smith. This book is based on Dr. Bruce Perry's work and Trust Based Relation Intervention (TBRI) and is a next-level skills building opportunity for caregivers.
During our three weeks together, our discussion will explore the senses in relation to how adverse experiences shape individual's preferences and sensory processing abilities. The final section reveals resources and practical strategies to help select best practice sensory-based strategies to promote healing through activity for the children in your care.
Please have access to a copy of the book. You can find "The Connected Therapist, Relating Through the Senses" at your local library, on Amazon or at local retailers. The book is also on Audible.
Please read Chapters 6 and 7 which we will be discussing the 1st night. Please join us even if you haven’t had the opportunity to read the chapters.
6 hours of training credit will be awarded to those who complete all 3 sessions of the book club.
The day before the scheduled event, you will receive an email with the link to join the book club. This book club will be held on the zoom platform.
We look forward to having you join us!

Sharon Colomb - scolomb@uw.edu
Sherry Colomb is a Development and Facilitation Specialist working with the Caregiver Training Team. With a background in Elderly/Disabled Adult case management, Sherry’s interest in child welfare began with her decision to become foster parent in 2005. Training and support were essential in her personal journey as a foster and adoptive parent, and she now feels privileged to be able to support other caregivers in this way.
Sherry finds one of the most rewarding parts of her job to be the opportunity to share her passion for seeing families reunify, and watching caregivers catch the vision for the unique and powerful role they can play in this process.
With deep respect for the value of our caregiver’s time, Sherry strives to make the caregiver courses the Alliance develops and presents meaningful, engaging and easily utilized in the in- home environment.
In 2021 Sherry became a Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) ® Practitioner and is excited to be able to share TBRI Principles with the caregivers of Washington State.
Renee Siers - siersr@uw.edu
Reneé brings years of experience in working with families to her position with the Alliance. Currently she is involved in developing and training curriculum for special trainings around effects of trauma, children and youth along with attachment and family. She works as part of the Strive team, where she trains Family Time Navigators in the Strive curriculum to help parents have productive family time with their children. Reneé coaches and mentors navigators helping them gain skills to use while working with families.
Attending the Advanced Standing MSW program at EWU, she did her practicum in the Adoptions unit of Child Welfare. She has always had a heart for families, but this experience deepened her desire to help people who have experienced trauma and her dedication to work in attachment. Becoming certified in Circle of Security and Trust Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) has impacted many people she has worked with. If you ask her what the answer is, she will tell you “relationship.”
Her journey began many years ago when she and her husband Tom became foster parents. Over the years she and her husband have adopted four children, which has given them many opportunities to work with the Child Welfare system. It has also given her insight into struggles parents go through while trying to parent when parenting skills have not been modeled for them and they have been affected by trauma.
Reneé feels fortunate to be able to work with such a great team at the Alliance since 2012.
