Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) at Rising Roads

Accelerated resolution therapy is a novel treatment for PTSD, depression, grief, anxiety, and addiction. By changing the way the brain stores distressing memories, ART eliminates strong physical or emotional reactions to triggers.

How ART Works

The psychological minds behind accelerated resolution therapy (ART) identified a clear relationship between traumatic events and the powerful reactions that they elicit. They determined that the best way to resolve conditions like PTSD is to effectively reprogram the brain. ART combines traditional therapeutic techniques with rapid eye movements (similar to those used in brainspotting  and EMDR . This blend of talk therapy and ocular stimulation helps clients to make quick progress, reducing their reactivity to triggers and reminders of the past.

Accelerated Resolution of Past Trauma

The directive-based approach used by ART therapists produces rapid results. While participating in our program, women can find relief from their symptoms and the distressing physical and emotional reactions that may have triggered past substance abuse.
While its primary indication is for trauma, PTSD, and C-PTSD, we also recommend accelerated resolution therapy for:
  • Alcoholism and drug addiction
  • Anxiety (generalized anxiety disorder)
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder
  • Phobias
  • Grief and loss
  • Depressive disorders (depression, bipolar)
Laney Rosenzweig, the founder of accelerated resolution therapy, describes this approach as both “extremely vigilant in paying attention to the client’s needs” and “designed so that treatment will be fully completed as soon as possible.” Instead of mimicking the more relaxed pace of EMDR, ART aims to help each woman to find immediate, lasting relief. Many of our clients see improvement in one or two sessions.
