In this episode of Transforming Trauma, Emily is joined by NARM Senior Trainer and Training Director, Brad Kammer, who shares about the updated Level 3 NARM Master Therapist Training that starts in March 2023. This is a major event in the growth of the NARM Training Institute and as Brad says, “This is also a big moment for me personally as Larry passes this training on to me after over 20 years of studying with and mentoring under him, and working together to evolve NARM. I am honored and so excited!”
As Brad reflects on the origins of this Level 3 training, he recalls being in the first NARM Training that Dr. Laurence Heller taught, and realizing that there was no way to cover the depth of this model in the span of a one-year training. Brad and his cohort requested that Larry continue in their training which spurred the creation of the first NARM Masters Training. Since then, Larry has taught this training in the U.S. and Europe, and Brad has been supporting him along the way.
Recently, Brad began redesigning the Masters curriculum, focused on creating an advanced training that embodies the humanity and heartfulness of NARM. By focusing on the relational, somatic and spiritual foundations of NARM, Brad hopes to bring awareness of and a pathway for reconnecting to the full human experience.
The Level 3 NARM Master Therapist Training is all about the transformative process of intersubjectivity and how relationships are the vehicle for deep healing and transformation. As Brad states, “When moving deeper into the intersubjective field, differences between biology, psychology and spirituality become blurred. The integration of body, mind and soul becomes the catalyst for a client’s awakening of their authentic sense of Self. On this level, the healing of complex trauma and personality patterns supports deepening connection between human beings. With NARM, we are learning what it means to support each other to become more fully human.”
We are grateful to Brad for his continued work and passion in evolving the NeuroAffective Relational Model, and presenting the depths of this sophisticated model to those working to heal complex trauma. We invite you to listen to the full episode for more on NARM’s intentionality and some evocative reflective exercises.
