Description

Accelerated Resolution Therapy is a form of psychotherapy with roots in existing evidence-based therapies but shown to achieve benefits much more rapidly (usually within 1-5 sessions). Clients with depression, anxiety, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance abuse, sexual abuse and many other mental and physical conditions can experience remarkable benefits starting in the first session. ART is not hypnosis. The client is always in control of the entire ART session, with the therapist guiding the process. Although some traumatic experiences such as rape, combat experiences, or loss of a loved one can be very painful to think about or visualize, the therapy rapidly moves clients beyond the place where they are stuck in these experiences toward growth and positive changes. The process is very straightforward, using relaxing eye movements and a technique called Voluntary Memory/Image Replacement to change the way in which the negative images are stored in the brain. The treatment is grounded in well-established psychotherapy techniques, and the end result is that traumas and difficult life experiences will no longer trigger strong emotions or physical reactions. Importantly, clients do not even have talk about their traumas or difficult life experiences with the therapist to achieve recovery. ART incorporates a combination of techniques used in many other traditional psychotherapies. ART works directly to reprogram the way in which distressing memories and images are stored in the brain so that they no longer trigger strong physical and emotional reactions. ART accomplishes this through the use of rapid eye movements similar to eye movements that occur during dreaming. Although techniques similar to these are used in other types of therapies. ART’s very specific and directive approach can achieve rapid recovery from symptoms and reactions that may have been present for many years. ART combines long respected, sound treatment practices with safe and effective methods validated by current scientific research studies conducted by the University of South Florida. ARTherapy is an often used acronym when referring to actual treatment. For your questions, email [email protected] or visit our Contact page.

The ART of Rapid Recovery | Laney Rosenzweig | TEDxSpringfield TEDx Talks Published on Nov 24, 2015 Trauma and the resulting PTSD negatively affects people throughout the world; the soldier returning from war, a child victim of sexual assault, the mail carrier viciously attacked and mauled by a dog. PTSD interferes with your life in ways that someone without it cannot imagine. A revolutionary therapy focuses on eliminating those negative images from view. What if you could take away traumatic images that replay in your head over and over again? What if that could be done with the wave of a hand and in a short period of time, maybe even in an hour or less. What if you could get your life back? Accelerated Resolution Therapy allows people to keep the knowledge of the event or issue but lose the pain. Laney Rosenzweig, MS, LMFT is the founder of Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and the CEO of Rosenzweig Center for Rapid Recovery (RCRR). She has been in the mental health field since 1989. Laney developed ART over seven years ago and has trained over 500 therapists as well as military clinicians in the US and overseas. She spent four years as a Visiting Faculty Member at the University of South Florida (USF) where they have studied her model concluding that PTSD symptoms can be alleviated in an average of three to four clinical sessions by those she has trained. ART has been credentialed by SAMHSA's National Registry as an evidenced-based therapy. Laney spent much of her career at the Wheeler Clinic in Plainville, Connecticut working out of their Adult Outpatient Unit, Substance Unit, Employee Assistance Program and Crisis Unit. She continues to train therapists including military clinicians in the ART model and also uses ART in her private practice out of Connecticut. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx...
