Neuro-reformatting and Integration (NRI)
NRI Trauma Treatment with Margaret Vasquez
A Unique Approach
Neuro-reformatting and Integration (NRI) is an adaptation of the Instinctual Trauma Response (ITR) model of trauma treatment that focuses on healthy integration and connection.
Traumatic memories are encoded in a way that causes the emotions to remain present and perspective to become skewed, thus causing the survivor to continue to feel and/or behave as though bound by the painful events of the past. Effective processing of past hurts allows the person to move into the future with freedom.
Child/Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Trauma Treatment Overview
1-week child program
The schedule for the 1-week program is
Monday – Friday 1 session of 2.5 – 3hrs per day
The Monday and Friday are typically spent in work with the parent/caregiver. The child need not be present for the Monday and Friday session.
This program is one-to-one rather than group.
5 Day Treatment
The reason that significant gains can be made within just one week is because this method of treatment works to address traumas on a biological level by reformatting how the brain encodes traumas.
Adult Intensive Outpatient Trauma Treatment Overview

This was the answer to many prayers for our family. Two years ago, when we were going through the adoption process, they helped fix our broken family. When everyone else was ready to quit they stepped in and helped.
Our daughter was deeply traumatized by her biological family situation. She was way too young to verbalize anything. Thrive helped give her trauma a voice so she didn’t have to live with it any longer.
Yes, there were a lot of skeptics – people judging that a two-year-old wouldn’t benefit from the trauma therapy. After a week of therapy my daughter made an amazing transformation. Our family would have never been complete if it were not for this help and the gift and the faith God has given them.
