Description

A practical step-by-step guide and follow-up companion
to Healing Developmental Trauma--presenting one of the first comprehensive models for addressing complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD)

The NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) is an integrated mind-body framework that focuses on relational, attachment, developmental, cultural, and intergenerational trauma. NARM helps clients resolve C-PTSD, recover from adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), and facilitate post-traumatic growth.

Inspired by cutting-edge trauma-informed research on attachment, developmental psychology, and interpersonal neurobiology, The Practical Guide for Healing Developmental Trauma provides counselors, psychotherapists, psychologists, social workers, and trauma-sensitive helping professionals with the theoretical background and practical skills they need to help clients transform complex trauma. It explains:

The four pillars of the NARM therapeutic model

Cultural and transgenerational trauma

Shock vs. developmental trauma

How to effectively address ACEs and support relational health

How to differentiate NARM from other approaches to trauma treatment

NARM's organizing principles and how to integrate the program into your clinical practice
