Accelerated Resolution Therapy

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a unique approach to psychotherapy. ART is unique because the ART Therapist guides the client to replace the negative images in the mind that cause the symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress with positive images of the client’s choosing. It may be an effective intervention for trauma, depression, and other mental health concerns. ART uses eye movements aimed to help quickly alleviate symptoms, which are often related to past trauma.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is an integrated, somatic trauma-focused psychotherapy that uses eye movements and voluntary image replacement for rapid relief and recovery from distressing images and difficult sensations. Many folks really like ART because it does not require discussing trauma details and the process itself is calming. It's generally very effective in treating trauma (one-time incidents or complex trauma), anxiety, depression, phobias, grief issues and more.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy is a quick and effective way to create lasting change. ART does not require you to talk about your painful past in order to heal from it. You, the Client, are in control of what is happening in session. Accelerated Resolution Therapy is an innovated approach building off of EMDR and combining a multitude of traditional psychotherapeutic techniques utilized in... Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Gestalt, Brief Psychodynamic, Exposure, and CBT.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a form of psychotherapy that aims to alleviate symptoms of trauma, anxiety, and stress-related disorders. It uses eye movements and visualization techniques to help you process distressing memories and emotions more rapidly than traditional therapy methods. ART is designed to promote emotional healing and reduce impact of past traumatic experiences.

I have had hundreds of hours of training and experience providing this evidence-based trauma therapy. While it was originally developed to treat PTSD symptoms, it has also been effective across many other applications (i.e. anxiety, depressive symptoms, ADHD, OCD, and more). Many of my clients have spent years in talk therapy trying to recover from trauma, and find relief from ART in several sessions.

I am a Master ART (accelerated resolution therapy) Practitioner. I work with individuals to help them heal from trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, etc. Clients are in control of sessions and keep the facts of what happened to them. Through a guided process that includes eye movements they are able to change images/alter painful memories and also reduce triggers and improve body sensations so that healing can occur from many painful memories and prior hurts.

I recently completed training for Accelerated Resolution Therapy which has been a game changer in my work. This intervention allows you to process negative sensations in a short amount of time. People typically feel some relief within one session, though typically treatment can be 3-5 depending on the complexity of presenting issues.

This is an evidenced-based form of psychotherapy that utilizes back and forth eye movements to help clients address common problems such as depression, anxiety, phobias and PTSD. During ART sessions, may find that you connect pieces of information that are already stored in your memory to help you resolve your issues. The brain, while focused on a problem and concurrently using eye movements, makes new connections with a person’s strengths and problem solving abilities.
