ART has been used to treat individuals with post- traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, trauma from sexual abuse, phobias, obsessive compulsive disorder, physical and mental challenges, addictions, grief, and job or relationship issues.
ART works to modify the way distressing memories and negative images are stored in the brain so that they no longer trigger strong physical and emotional reactions, and establish a positive change for adverse psychological conditions. ART has shown to achieve benefits much more rapidly than other therapies (usually within 1-5 sessions).
