About the Training

This training offers an introduction to the fundamentals of working with NARM. NARM is a neurobiologically-informed, developmentally-oriented therapeutic approach that integrates principles from psychodynamic psychotherapy, attachment theory, Gestalt therapy, and various somatic psychotherapy modalities.

In this approach, the therapist supports the client in a process of becoming aware of and transforming:

  • deeply ingrained psychological and physiological survival strategies developed in response to early traumatic experiences,
  • as well as the identity patterns rooted in those strategies – core identifications with adaptive mechanisms formed in challenging relational environments.

The goal of NARM® therapy is to support clients in transforming maladaptive identity patterns and relational schemas shaped in response to complex trauma, as well as in self-awareness, psychobiological regulation, and authentic connection with self and others.
