What is ART?
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a cutting-edge, evidence-based therapeutic approach developed by Laney Rosenzweig, designed to rapidly address and resolve distressing memories and emotional experiences. ART combines elements of traditional talk therapy with innovative techniques to help you process and reframe negative experiences, leading to lasting emotional relief and personal growth.

ART helps to restore mental health by changing the way distressing memories and images are stored in the brain. When we recall sad, scary, or confusing memories or situations, we experience uncomfortable emotions and feelings in our bodies. If we can change the images, we eliminate the symptoms.
It’s just that simple.
ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) is an evidence based form of psychotherapy shown to achieve benefits much more rapidly (generally 1-5 sessions). ART uses bilateral stimulation to process out memories, but focuses less on content and more on replacing distressing scenes, images, and sensations.
Clients suffering from depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, substance use and many other mental and physical conditions, experience remarkable benefits starting in the first session. ART is NOT hypnosis and does not require medications or homework.
How ART Works
- Identifying Distressing Memories: We start by identifying specific memories or emotional experiences that are causing distress. This process involves discussing and pinpointing the memories or situations that you wish to address in therapy.
- Using ART Techniques: ART incorporates a range of techniques, including guided imagery, rapid eye movements, and bilateral stimulation, to help you process and reframe the identified memories. These techniques are designed to facilitate the processing of distressing emotions and alter the way you perceive and respond to these experiences.
- Reframing and Resolution: Through the ART process, we work on reframing negative memories and emotions, transforming them into more neutral or positive experiences. This helps to reduce the emotional charge associated with these memories and promotes a sense of resolution.
- Integration and Healing: We focus on integrating the new, positive perspectives into your daily life. This includes exploring how the resolved memories impact your current behavior, thoughts, and emotional well-being.
- Enhancing Emotional Well-Being: ART aims to enhance your overall emotional well-being by reducing symptoms of distress and trauma. This involves developing coping strategies and building resilience to support your continued growth and healing.
- Ongoing Support: We provide ongoing support throughout the therapy process to ensure that you continue to make progress and achieve lasting relief from emotional distress. This includes monitoring your experiences and adjusting techniques as needed to meet your evolving needs.
