Accelerated Resolution Therapy® (ART)


Accelerated Resolution Therapy

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is an evidence-based therapy designed to help you experience relief from trauma and anxiety—often in just a few sessions. By harnessing your natural strengths and problem-solving abilities, Accelerated Resolution Therapy fosters positive shifts in how you process difficult memories and feelings, typically within 3–5 sessions. This compassionate approach blends elements of Gestalt therapy, guided imagery, and gentle eye movements linked to calming theta brain waves. ART is a non-invasive treatment that guides you through soothing eye movements and targeted visualization. Unlike some therapies that ask you to repeatedly relive and recount every detail of your trauma, Accelerated Resolution Therapy allows you to focus on moving toward healing without becoming overwhelmed by the past. You remain fully in control and aware throughout each session.

ART is designed to feel safe, structured, and empowering. We begin by understanding your goals and creating a safe, supportive space. Through gentle horizontal eye movements, we engage the brain’s natural calming processes. We pair these movements with visualization techniques to help your brain reprocess distressing memories. Each session ends with grounding strategies, empowering you to carry newfound calm into daily life.

Benefits of Accelerated Resolution Therapy

  • Speed: Many clients notice significant relief in as few as 1–5 sessions of Accelerated Resolution Therapy.

  • Gentleness: No need to recount painful details repeatedly—ART respects your emotional boundaries.

  • Control: You’re in the driver’s seat throughout the process, fostering a sense of safety and empowerment.

  • Lasting Change: By “updating” your brain’s emotional responses, the troubling charge around memories diminishes, allowing you to move forward with ease.

If you’re seeking a therapeutic approach that works quickly, doesn’t require you to “talk it all out”, and honors your emotional pace and safety then Accelerated Resolution Therapy may be exactly what you need to reclaim calm, confidence, and freedom from the weight of past experiences.
