ABOUT THE COURSE
INSTRUCTOR
Tonyalea Elam, MSW, LCSW, TBRI Practitioner
The Trust Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) skills for helping caregivers to connect with the children in their care are reviewed. The five connecting principles of matching behavior, playful engagement, eye contact, safe touch and voice are based on the work of Dr. Karyn Purvis and Dr. David Cross and the Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development. The techniques reviewed in the training encourage relationship building and are based on the understanding that behavior change can occur organically when a parent and child are connected.
