When we recall an emotional memory, it can be open to change. This happens a lot to our every day memories and we don’t even realize it.

ART has you intentionally open up your memory to be more open to change that can relieve you from the troubling images, sensations, and the emotions that perpetuate your pain.

During an ART session, your therapist will sit directly in front of you and use their hand to guide you to visualize the traumatic event and create a new story. As your eyes move side to side you will be encouraged to think of your problem in the context of a “scene,” as if you were watching a movie clip.

You imagine replacing images and sensations associated with the traumatic memory with your own choice of images and sensations that are more pleasing and positive. You will alternate between playing through your “scene” for short periods of time and using eye movements to calm physical sensations and emotions that arise when you think of your problem.

As your brain visualizes the problem with eye movements, the way you think and feel about the problem begins to naturally shift. While you retain the ability to recall the facts of the incident(s), you no longer experience the intense emotions previously associated with it.

You might have tried traditional talk therapy, maybe even for years, and seem to be frustrated with slow or little progress with your anxiety symptoms.

When regular talk therapy is used, it focuses on changing your thoughts but often leaves you disconnected to your emotional and physiological responses, which keeps you stuck on the anxious rollercoaster.

ART helps you make the connection between your anxious experience cognitively and emotionally so your pain doesn’t stay stuck.

Post traumatic stress occurs when a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event.

One moment becomes “frozen in time,” and remembering a trauma may feel as bad as going through it the first time because the images, sounds, smells, and feelings haven’t changed.

As your brain visualizes the problem with eye movements, the way you think and feel about the problem begins to naturally shift. While you retain the ability to recall the facts of the incident(s), you no longer experience the intense emotions previously associated with it.

ART uses eye movements to mimic the REM phase of sleep and enhance ability to change.

The REM (Rapid Eye Movement) phase of sleep is when learning and processing of emotional memories occur. The sets of eye movements used with ART “simulate” aspects of REM sleep, enhancing the ability to make positive changes to memories, and relaxing us in the process.
