"This book, from two experienced and insightful practitioners,
offers a thorough and clear guide to a modality of therapy far
deeper than the prevailing cognitive and behavioral treatments. It
is highly promising because it goes beyond the surface
manifestations to the root causes and dynamics of human
distress."
—Gabor Maté MD, author of When The Body Says No
"This new book, written by Dr. Laurence Heller and Brad Kammer,
presents the clinical approach to the NeuroAffective Relational
Model (NARM), created by Dr. Laurence Heller, and continues NARM’s
important contribution to the rapidly evolving field of
traumatology. As a follow up companion to the groundbreaking book
Healing Developmental Trauma, this practical manual offers
step-by-step guidance to those wishing to work with some of the
most hard-to-treat patients who suffer from the heartbreak of
developmental trauma. This book is designed mostly for therapists
wanting to better understand NARM but also for some trauma
survivors who want to educate themselves about how the NARM method
works. While trauma experts scratch their heads about how to best
treat early developmental trauma, and while finding consensus among
the experts can be challenging, NARM offers a much-needed tool in
the integrative trauma therapist's medicine bag."
—Lissa Rankin, MD, New York Times bestselling author of Mind
Over Medicine
“Heller and Kammer’s essential guide expertly translates our best
science into the therapeutic skills-building roadmap we need to
heal the complex developmental trauma so prevalent among our
children, families, communities, and world today. This book reminds
us that building our capacity to heal others heals us as well, as
we support the innate human capacity to grow and flourish through
adversity. The comprehensive NARM approach is a coherent pathway to
build the knowledge, skills, and joyful work of healing by
restoring an embodied sense of connection, belonging, and ongoing
sense of confidence to meet life’s challenges."
