Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)
Welcome to your comprehensive guide to Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), an innovative
approach designed to help individuals overcome trauma and emotional distress. ART is transforming
lives by offering rapid relief and empowering individuals to reclaim their well-being.
What is Accelerated Resolution Therapy?
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a form of trauma therapy that leverages the natural ways the brain processes information to facilitate rapid healing from trauma and distress. Utilizing bi-lateral eye stimulation (BLS) and a set of specific protocols, ART helps individuals alter the way distressing memories are stored in the brain, leading to a reduction in emotional and physical reactions associated with those memories.
ART vs. EMDR: Key Differences
While ART and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) share similarities, such as the use of eye movements, they differ in several key areas:
Feature | ART | EMDR |
|---|---|---|
Duration | Typically 1-5 sessions | Often requires 10-20 sessions |
Focus | Focuses on actively replacing negative images with positive images; on body sensations to ease distress | Focuses on processing and desensitizing traumatic memories; on thoughts and feelings |
Directive Approach | Highly directive, therapist guides through specific techniques | Less directive, client-led processing (free association) |
Memory Processing | Does not require any verbal recall of traumatic memories | Requires at least some verbal discussion of trauma |
Outcome | Rapid reduction in distress with lasting results. Protocol offers a sense of resolution in each session. | Gradual reduction, may require more time for results. Often requires the use of “container” skills for managing between-session distress. |
Benefits of ART for Diverse Populations
First Responders
First responders face high levels of stress and exposure to traumatic events. Understandably, many first responders do not want to discuss the past trauma they have experienced. ART provides rapid relief from symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and depression, without having to talk about the traumatic event at all, allowing these heroes to continue serving our communities with resilience and strength.
Members of the Military
Military members, whether on active duty or veterans, frequently face traumatic experiences during their service. Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) provides a confidential and effective path to healing, aiding in their transition to civilian life with enhanced mental well-being and emotional stability. Research indicates that the brevity of sessions, the absence of a need to recount traumatic incidents, and high satisfaction rates among providers demonstrate the effectiveness of ART as a primary treatment approach for PTSD in active duty and veteran military personnel. (Kip & Diamond,2018)
Past Trauma Survivors
For survivors of past trauma, ART offers a compassionate and effective treatment option for getting unstuck from the painful, lingering past with a path to healing. By transforming distressing memories and reducing associated emotional responses, individuals can experience a sense of empowerment over their own internal experiences and freedom from the burdens they are tired of carrying. ART offers a chance to embrace a future of hope and healing.
