What Is Accelerated Resolution Therapy?

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a form of psychotherapy designed to help individuals overcome trauma and other mental health issues. It works by reprogramming the way distressing memories and images are stored in the brain so they no longer trigger strong emotional and physical reactions.

How ART Works

  1. Eye Movements: ART uses rapid eye movements, similar to those in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), to help process traumatic memories.
  2. Visualization: During a session, the therapist guides the client to visualize the traumatic event and then replaces the negative images with positive ones.
  3. Directive Approach: The therapist directs the process, helping the client to reframe their memories and reduce the emotional impact.


ART is known for its quick results, often providing relief in just a few sessions. It's effective for treating PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions.
