What Makes NARM® Different from Other Therapies

When most people think of therapy, they imagine talking about the past, analyzing childhood memories, or learning coping skills to manage symptoms. While these approaches can be helpful, many find themselves repeating the same patterns despite years of effort. This is where the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM®) offers something profoundly different.

Unlike traditional talk therapy, NARM® doesn’t just revisit the past—it focuses on the here and now, exploring how old survival strategies are still shaping your present experience. It works relationally, which means healing unfolds within a safe, supportive connection, rather than through analysis alone. NARM® is less about fixing and more about uncovering—the hidden ways trauma disconnects us from our authentic self—and gently restoring that connection.

Through this process, clients often experience greater clarity, emotional regulation, and freedom from long-standing patterns. Instead of simply coping, NARM® helps people reconnect with their inner vitality and the ability to live fully. It’s not about re-living the pain of the past—it’s about reclaiming the life that’s possible now.
