Accelerated Resolution Therapy
What is it?
Accelerated Resolution Therapy® (ART) is an evidence-based form of psychotherapy that utilizes back and forth eye movements to help clients address common problems such as depression, anxiety, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). ART is a very focused eye movement therapy and, as such, has produced quick, effective and safe results in treating anxiety, depression, phobias, relationship issues and grief, to name a few.
How does it work?
You will be in total control of the therapy. When initially thinking about your problem during therapy, you may feel some of your usual unease about it. Clients quickly pass beyond their anxiety or sadness to first experience calm and then, as their problem loses its hold on them, relief. At the completion of ART treatment, the evidence to date shows that the changes you make will be long-lasting,
What will I do?
I will ask you to use ART's Degree of Intensity scale to indicate the intensity of the emotions related to your problem. I will have you follow my fingers with your eyes while you think about your problem. Physical sensations will also be processed by using the eye movements so that disturbing sensations can disappear and positive feelings can be enhanced.
“ My Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) with her (Meredith Moran) for treatment of my PTSD has made an unbelievable difference in my life in managing my triggers and episodes. The skills she has taught me along with her encouragement and support have helped me to craft a strong foundation against anxiety that I build on every day. Her ability to break down the different elements of addiction has also helped me to better understand family and improve my boundary setting. If you are considering getting help or just curious about ART and PTSD, I highly recommend you reach out to Dr. Moran."
