Author(s) : Laurence Heller, Author(s) : Brad Kammer

Reviews and Endorsements

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. - Christina Bethell, PhD, MBA, MPH, professor of Child Health, Bloomberg School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins University.
