NeuroAffective Relational Model

NARM

NARM incorporates both somatic (body-informed) and cognitive theories to help us process and integrate trauma.

It uses a neuroscience and attachment lens to support us in moving out of an unhelpful instinctual "fight-flight-freeze" trauma response and into a more grounded, authentic, and agency-based state that better serves our wellbeing and relationship to self + others.

Using NARM you will not be asked to revisit or relive painful memories. According to its creator, Dr. Laurence Heller: "The spontaneous movement in all of us is toward connection, health, and aliveness. No matter how withdrawn and isolated we have become, or how serious the trauma we have experienced, on the deepest level, just as a plant spontaneously moves toward sunlight, there is in each of us an impulse moving toward connection and healing. This organismic impulse is the fuel of the NARM approach."
