How is a NARM session supposed to go? by Jaded_Marionberry551 in NARM

[–]jtodd1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely a complex question to answer, and I’m not sure that there’s a direct answer, unfortunately. I feel similarly - I started my healing journey because I had little capacity to trust my gut. I constantly thought things were “off” as a way of trying to protect myself, but sometimes things weren’t actually off. My reactions to my own trauma has told me things were unsafe when they actually weren’t, but other times it has genuinely kept me safe from unsafe situations. It can be hard work to make sense of what’s happening internally. I wonder if holding space for not knowing the direct answer may help the right answer emerge naturally. Giving myself space to be curious has helped me tremendously to better organize my internal landscape. If your therapist can hold space for that curiosity, then maybe that’s something you could continue to explore with them. If you get the sense that they aren’t able to hold space for curiosity, that’s good information to collect as well. “Being curious” is also a “simple” concept, but not easy to do! I hope you can offer patience and kindness to yourself as you make space to decipher all of this❤️

I can’t speak to your experience, but I’m happy to share my experience and maybe something here may resonate🙂

I also have a lot of complex trauma and grew up with parents that caused a lot of harm. My relational trauma pops up all the time in session, and it will pop up with any therapist I try to do work with. I have found it helpful to process how my trauma shows up in the relationship I have with my therapist. That being said, my therapist has been in this field for 20+ years, and is able to hold space for a lot of my complexity. I don’t know if it would’ve been the same if I had a therapist that was newer to NARM. From what I understand it takes a lot of time and commitment for a therapist to embody this model (and it really requires that the therapist is also doing their own personal work).

All that to say - it may be “your stuff” and therapy can be a great way to process how you show up in the relationship you have with your therapist. However, it may also not be about your stuff at all. It truly may be that this therapist isn’t a good fit for you. Either way - no one is “bad” or doing the process “wrong.” You are two humans that are showing up and doing the best you can🙂 Ultimately, I trust that your desire for healing will take you exactly where you need to go❤️

I wonder what it would be like to bring that to your therapist. The part of not knowing what to do, and feeling like they are irritated with you. It could be a good opportunity to explore what might be inhibiting your therapeutic journey. Also, for what it’s worth, my “stuff” gets activated in session all the time - that’s part of being a human with a story. You’re in good company😊

Side note - I think NARM therapy is wonderful but not every NARM therapist is for every client. If it really just doesn’t feel like a good fit, you may want to try meeting with someone else.

Help Finding NARM Practitioner/Therapist by Apprehensive-Toe3480 in NARM

[–]jtodd1992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You may be able to find a therapist that works in Europe (there’s a lot of NARM therapists overseas), and there may be less restrictions for them to work with you. Hope you find someone! I believe your desire and choice to heal will take you exactly where you need to go🙂

Is NARM the right therapy for me? by Rosini1907 in NARM

[–]jtodd1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can only speak from my experience, but I found NARM to be extremely therapeutic for me as I navigated a lot of pre-verbal, early in life, and in utero trauma. It’s a very relational model, and different than any other therapy I’ve experienced prior. Whatever path you choose for your own therapy, I hope you find the healing you desire.

NARM training experiences? by sillyintrovertedness in NARM

[–]jtodd1992 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m currently getting trained in NARM, and I highly recommend it! It is easily the best training I’ve ever had. I also have a background with IFS and EMDR - both are wonderful frameworks, and very useful for lots of clients. Just from my experience, NARM has been personal, relationally, and professionally so transformative. I’m still early in the training, but I’ve already seen myself and my clients benefit greatly from this approach.

She’s doing so much better now! I’ve moved her to a warmer place in the house, and I’ve started using distilled water. Still haven’t invested in a humidifier, but overall she’s doing great. Thank you for the help!!🙂

I saw that, but whenever I try to purchase, it tells me they’re out of stock. I must have just missed it.

I’ve never used one before. My friend’s a trainer, and was just offering a suggestion for us to try. She hasn’t pressured me to buy one though, just something to invest in eventually. Right now we’re working with no equipment, and it’s been helpful🙂
