One approach:

[1] compute the climatological monthly means and then calculate the monthly
anomalies: x(time,lat,lon)

  xMonClm = *clmMonTLL*
<https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Contributed/clmMonTLL.shtml>
(x)                  ; monthly climatology   (12,lat,lon)
  xMonAnom = *calcMonAnomTLL*
<https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Contributed/calcMonAnomTLL.shtml>
(x,xMonClm)    ; (time,lat,lon);  (0,1,2)


[2]* xDtrend = dtrend_n
<https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/dtrend_n.shtml>*(xMonAnom,True,0)
; trend returned as attribute
     printVarSummary(xDtrend)

NCL is not a statistics package. It does have some simple regression
functions.
