Mental Health and Addiction Counselling with Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)

A different type of therapy.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy is an evidence-based, bottom-up approach that helps release trauma and negative emotions stored in the nervous system.

It’s a gentle and rapid therapy, that uses bilateral stimulation to resolve distressing memories and mental health challenges, without years of talk therapy.

  • Rapid Results

    Notice relief in as little as 1–5 sessions.

  • Minimal Talking

    No need to retell or relive painful details.

  • A Direct Approach

    Guided sessions without overthinking or planning and no homework.

  • Non-Invasive

    No repeated exposure to the same painful memories.

  • Closure Oriented

    Each session ends with resolution and a positive shift.

What is the Process?

Before beginning ART, we’ll make sure you feel safe, supported, and fully informed. Your first appointment includes an assessment to understand your concerns and goals, along with education about mental health, coping strategies, and how Accelerated Resolution Therapy works.

Each ART session follows a calm, structured process. Through guided visualization and bilateral eye movements, ART helps the brain and body release the emotional and physical patterns connected to distressing memories or experiences.

Most people notice significant shifts within 1–5 sessions, though the number can vary. Afterward, clients are welcome to return as needed for additional support or fine-tuning.
