In this episode of Transforming Trauma, Emily is joined by Salman Alawadi, a NARM practitioner and Ph.D. candidate in Research, Measurement, and Evaluation at the University of Miami, for a fascinating discussion about the challenges of developing an evidence-based standard for NARM and distilling that research into accessible data.\xa0

In medical terminology, \u201cevidenced-based\u201d is a gold star endorsement awarded to recurrent standards of proof that arise from comparison studies of a specific treatment protocol or prevention. Is it possible to validate NARM\u2019s efficacy using those same evidence-based standards? Should we? Salman calls out psychology\u2019s fixation with the medical model and advocates for creating more rigorous criteria to understand a psychological intervention.\xa0
