Hull Services as Flagship Hull began the 2 year certification process in May 2011. In September 2013, Hull became a Flagship Site for the ChildTrauma Academy and NMT. Active involvement in training and research activities with the ChildTrauma Academy and its learning network of other clinicians and programs across the world.
What is NMT? Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) is a revolutionary evidence based practice based on the understanding of neuroscience and brain development NMT was developed by Bruce D. Perry, Ph.D., M.D. and the ChildTrauma Academy over the last 20 years

Answering the Question: What does an NMT program look like? NMT Training (relevant). Brain mapping (relevant). Creating a Therapeutic Web (Relational, Rewarding). Relationally healthy caregiver characteristics (Relational). Safe, predictable, structured environment (Rhythmic, Repetitive). Sequencing of interventions (Rhythmic, repetitive).
Skills training (for self-regulation) (Rhythmic, Repetitive, Rewarding, Relational). 8. Preventative and responsive dosing of somatosensory activities; patterned, repetitive activities that support self- regulation (prompting use of NMT skills prior to stressful events, and caregiver recognition of distress/dysregulation) (Rhythmic, Repetitive). 9. Activity scheduling (planned dosing) (Rhythmic, Repetitive). 10. Parental assistance with regulation difficulties (Rhythmic, Repetitive, Relational, Relevant). 11. Relational permanence- life span mentor/friend/relative (Relational, Rewarding). What does an NMT program look like? (cont.)
