Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) for Children in Orlando

Rapid, Effective PTSD and Trauma Therapy for Children in Downtown Orlando

Fast, Compassionate, Effective Trauma Relief

Have you noticed your child struggling with trauma, anxiety, nightmares, sudden fear, or school avoidance? ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) can help—rapidly and gently. Unlike traditional talk therapy, ART uses eye movements and image rescripting to transform trauma-related memories, helping children reclaim calm and safety in just a few sessions.

💫 How ART Supports Children

ART is evidence-informed and closely tailored to the needs of children. Its strengths include:

  • Guided Eye Movements: Children follow a therapist’s hand or tapping, similar to what occurs during REM sleep.

  • Imagery Rescripting: Children replace scary or upsetting images with positive, empowering ones, without forgetting the original memory

  • Safe & Structured Sessions: ART is predictable and paced to a child’s emotional readiness—no surprises, no overwhelm.

  • Rapid Results: Most children experience noticeable relief in just 1–5 sessions.

✅ What Child Issues ART Can Address

ART is effective for a range of childhood challenges:

  • Trauma, traumatic memories, or PTSD symptoms

  • Intense anxiety or fears

  • Nightmares and poor sleep

  • School avoidance or flashbacks

  • Grief or distress from loss

  • Bullying or violent incidents

  • Medical trauma experiences

ART doesn’t erase memories—it transforms their emotional impact, allowing children to hold the memory without the pain

🧒 What Parents Need to Know

ART is safe for kids—but it’s not for every situation. Here's what you should know:

  • Child readiness is key. Our therapists assess emotional and developmental readiness. Sessions are child-paced and emotionally supportive.

  • Sessions are brief and targeted. Each session lasts 45–60 minutes. Younger children may start with shorter encounters.

  • Therapist guidance is active. Your child isn’t left alone—our therapists provide step-by-step support and stabilization.

  • Imagery stays with the child. Children retain factual memory but experience relief from emotional distress.

  • Expect short-term follow-up. We often schedule check-ins 2–7 days after an ART session to monitor progress and support.

  • Parents can be involved (when appropriate). Some families participate in joint sessions, which can foster trust and improve communication.

🛠️ What to Expect in an ART Session

Your child will:

  1. Briefly recall a safe memory or image.

  2. Begin guided eye movements or tapping (when needed).

  3. Replace distressing imagery with positive, calming visuals.

  4. Check in on how the memory feels now—it often shifts quickly.

  5. End with a gentle discussion and stabilization.

No intense talking, no reliving the trauma—just peaceful processing and relief

How Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) Works: ART therapists guide you safely in replacing distressing images tied to traumatic experiences with positive visuals of your choice. As a result, triggers, nightmares, and intrusive thoughts rapidly diminish.
