Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)

We know that trauma doesn’t always manifest as a single, big event. It can live in the body as anxiety, flashbacks, or a constant sense of unease. And while healing takes time, relief doesn’t have to. That’s why we offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART).

This method helps change how your brain stores painful memories. ART is for people who feel trapped in stress or trauma. It provides quick and lasting results. At Florida Atlantic Coast Treatment Solutions (FACTS), we integrate ART into personalized care plans for those seeking mental health treatment or addiction treatment in Florida. We offer a trauma-informed approach that meets you exactly where you are.

What Is Accelerated Resolution Therapy?

Accelerated Resolution Therapy combines elements of eye movement desensitization, cognitive restructuring, and guided imagery to help you process and reframe traumatic memories. During a session, your therapist will guide you through specific eye movements while you recall upsetting experiences in a safe, controlled setting. Unlike some traditional therapies, ART focuses on minimizing distress rather than retelling every detail of your past. It’s a fast-paced, focused approach that helps the brain reprocess painful memories within a handful of sessions.

Benefits of Accelerated Resolution Therapy

One of the most remarkable aspects of Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is its ability to create meaningful change remarkably quickly. Unlike traditional talk therapy, ART works at the level of the nervous system. It helps you resolve distress without having to rehash every painful memory. The benefits include:

  • Reduces symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and depression
  • Can improve sleep and reduce emotional triggers
  • Doesn’t require ongoing talk therapy about the trauma
  • Effective for both single-event and complex trauma
  • Helps you feel more in control of your emotional responses

Who Can Benefit From ART During Treatment?

Accelerated Resolution Therapy is especially helpful for people who are struggling with:

  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Childhood trauma or abuse
  • Grief and loss
  • Anxiety or panic attacks
  • Flashbacks and emotional triggers
  • Any traumatic events

We use ART in both individual sessions and as part of comprehensive treatment plans for addiction and mental health. It’s often integrated with other evidence-based practices to provide a comprehensive spectrum of care.
