Accelerated Resolution Therapy

I’m excited to offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), an innovative, evidence-based treatment that helps clients process traumatic memories and reduce psychological distress.  ART uses a unique combination of eye movements, similar to those used in EMDR, along with voluntary image replacement techniques that allow you to keep the factual memory of difficult experiences while changing the way your brain stores them, so they no longer carry the emotional “charge”. What makes ART particularly appealing to many clients is that you don’t have to talk in detail about your trauma if you don’t want to—the processing happens primarily through guided visualization and bilateral stimulation, making it a gentler approach for those who find traditional talk therapy too difficult in regards to trauma.

In my practice, I’ve seen remarkable results with ART for a wide range of concerns including PTSD symptoms, anxiety, depression, phobias, grief, and even performance anxiety. During our sessions, you’ll remain fully conscious and in control while we work together to help your brain reprocess distressing images and sensations associated with your presenting concern.  Many clients describe feeling lighter, sleeping better, and finding that intrusive thoughts or traumatic memories no longer have the same emotional charge after ART treatment.  I’m always happy to answer questions about whether ART might be right for your specific situation.
