The NeuroAffective Relational Model(NARM) is a cutting-edge model for working through complex trauma by addressing attachment, relational and developmental trauma.
Before we begin to heal our early wounds and trauma in counselling, we often believe these problems and challenges are a part of who we are – and we judge ourselves for them – rather than seeing them as once protective adaptations that were needed to survive difficult family and life circumstances. These protective adaptations have, in many cases, now outlived their usefulness. Counselling with NARM enables us to recognise, update, repurpose, or move away from using these early survival styles.
