neuroaffective relational model

NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM™) is a therapeutic model for addressing developmental, relational, and attachment trauma with a psychodynamic and body centered approach.  NARM™ focuses on combining awareness of one's own body sensations with psychological and cognitive thoughts in the present moment. 

The foundation of NARM™ is the belief that as children, we learned identities and survival strategies from our families and environments of origin in order to protect the attachment relationship with our parents and caregivers.  NARM™ is a comprehensive clinical approach that addresses relational and attachment trauma by working with early, unconscious patterns of disconnection that deeply affect our identity, emotions, physiology, behavior and relationships. 

​Working simultaneously with these diverse elements creates a radical shift that has profound clinical implications for healing complex trauma.  In a NARM
™ session, the focus is placed on working with your nervous system and present moment thoughts in the here and now instead of focusing on stories from the past.  Through NARM™ work you can expect healing through an increased capacity for connection and relationships, a sense of calm, and restored capacity for well-being.
