The first nervous-system-aware assessment and protocol library, built in clinical practice.

The NORM Rhythm Platform delivers the Neuro-Relational Strengths Index (NRSI) — a structured relational assessment — plus NORM-aligned protocols, outcomes tracking, and a research collaboration in development, for clinicians, researchers, and graduate trainees.

For Clinicians

Integrate the NRSI into your couples and family practice. Structured scoring with provisional bands, paired-profile reports, safety gates, and protocols mapped to clinical presentations. Free sample report + 30-min demo.

For Researchers

Research collaboration is in development. Until a norming sample exists we are not offering datasets, studies, or validation work — but we would like to hear about your polyvagal-aware relational research now.

For Interns & Students

Apply to the NORM Research Internship. Gain hands-on exposure to NRSI, relational assessment design, and clinical-research translation. Cohort-based, mentored by practicing LMFTs.

Why NORM exists

NORM is a relational behavior change model developed over 15+ years of marriage and family therapy practice. It integrates polyvagal theory, attachment science, and somatic regulation into a structured framework of rhythm, resonance, repair, and reconnection. The Neuro-Relational Strengths Index (NRSI) puts the model into a structured assessment, used today in clinical intake and outcomes tracking. It has not yet been normed, and its score bands are provisional.

NRSI Assessment Engine

Nine sets, taken a set at a time. Paired-profile couple reports, symptom screens, and safety gates — built to support clinical judgment, not replace it. Bands are provisional.

NORM-Aligned Protocols

Skills labs, contract-based interventions, and content tracks mapped to clinical presentations. For in-session, between-session, or research-protocol use.

Outcomes Dashboard

Longitudinal tracking and pre/post comparisons across your own caseload.

Clinician Certification

Training tracks for LMFTs, LCSWs, psychologists, and pastoral counselors who want to integrate NORM into their practice.

Clinicians: book a demo and get a sample report. Researchers: start a conversation about collaboration. Interns: apply to the next cohort.
