Continued Professional Development and Enhancements

NARM®-Informed Professional

The Neuro-Affective Relational Model® (NARM®) is an approach to working with the effects of complex and developmental trauma. NARM addresses these impacts by focusing on the patterns of disconnection that form early in life and continue to shape our adult experiences.

NARM integrates psychodynamic, somatic, and cognitive therapies with affective neuroscience and non-Western perspectives to support individuals in reconnecting with themselves – their bodies and emotions – and other people. NARM offers a deeply respectful, resource-oriented approach that supports both clients and practitioners.

Rather than primarily focusing on traumatic events themselves, NARM works with the adaptive patterns and survival strategies people developed in response to early trauma – patterns that were once necessary, but limit connection and well-being later in life.

At the heart of NARM is a recognition of the innate human drive toward connection, aliveness, and wholeness—a drive that fuels the healing process in NARM.
