Accelerated Resolution Therapy

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a revolutionary trauma treatment approach designed to alleviate the emotional distress associated with traumatic experiences efficiently and effectively. Developed by Laney Rosenzweig, a licensed therapist, ART combines elements of traditional psychotherapy with innovative techniques that expedite the processing of distressing memories.

The process involves utilizing eye movements to simulate the Rapid Eye Movement (REM) stage of sleep, facilitating the brain's natural ability to process information. During an ART session, clients are guided through a series of eye movements while recalling distressing memories. This aids in reprocessing traumatic events, allowing the mind to integrate them in a less distressing way.

What makes ART truly remarkable is its swiftness and the potential for long-lasting results. Unlike traditional therapeutic approaches that may require extended periods, ART often produces significant relief in just a few sessions. Its efficiency is particularly valuable for individuals who may find it challenging to engage in prolonged therapy or those seeking rapid relief from the debilitating effects of trauma, PTSD, and phobias.

ART goes beyond merely managing symptoms; it facilitates a transformative process that empowers individuals to regain control over their lives. By diminishing the emotional intensity attached to traumatic memories, ART enables clients to move forward with greater resilience, restored emotional well-being, and a renewed sense of hope. Stillwater Therapy is committed to leveraging this powerful modality in conjunction with other evidence-based appraoches to support individuals on their journey toward healing and recovery.
