I wanted to update everyone on how my first session went, I think it would be valuable info for people exploring if this is the correct option for them. The first session of this treatment lasted an hour. Basically I’d follow the movement of my therapist’s hand with my eyes (she moved her hand pretty quickly back and forth). From her prompts I would transition from thinking through my traumatic event, to imagining what I’d prefer have happened at the end, then finding a place I feel intensely comfortable and safe in my mind. Since then, the beating my mind would receive from this specific traumatic event has… stopped? It’s like a patch of ice has frozen over that memory, I can see it if I really try to look, but otherwise my mind just slips right over it. I do feel as if I’ve opened a door of emotion and tough feelings that come and go, but feeling worse throughout a therapy treatment is pretty normal I think. Weirdly enough I feel a sense of transition, like now that memory truly is in the past, and the people who were a part of it were putting their struggles on to a child and it really had nothing to do with ME. So… yes? This treatment has helped me with ONE SESSION. I will come back and tell more if anyone is interested later on.

ART & EMDR works with images...means memories in remembrance...what about repressed memories or childhood traumas not on surface ?

@samuelgioia3013

10 ай бұрын

Those emerge in what is called "Scene Match." You start with the sensations of trauma that you experience on a regular basis and then the eye movement helps you to find the source. The focus of ART is not on the triggering event itself, but on what happens with you when you are triggered. Often you don't even narrate the trauma to the therapist, you just visualize it yourself with support until you can visualize it without the trauma response. The therapist invites you to share whatever you want during the pauses between eye movement, but you don't necessarily tell the therapist about the event itself. You mainly describe your feelings and body sensations, and the therapist helps you to resolve them through the eye movement.

ART is directed by the therapist, while EMDR is self directed by the client. ART uses the hand while EMDR uses two fingers. ART's core is guided self imagery while EMDR core is AIP (Adaptive Information Processing). EMDR can be up to 3-12 sessions preparation sessions for the desensitization while ART uses desensitization guided imagery in the first session. EMDR is evidenced based while current ART is not (yet). EMDR desensitization is self guided by the client, the client follows where the mind goes with the trauma. EMDR also uses float back where you float back to the traumatic event where the triggers first started, usually in childhood. ART is directed by the therapist where the therapist tells the client what to focus on and is focused on the one trauma event and does not go back to traumatic events in childhood. EMDR is attachment focused while ART is not. EMDR can extinguish and make memories extinct in research studies but the jury is still out on this with ART.

It is highly interactive. Every minute or so, the therapist stops the EM and checks in with you to see what you are experiencing. A seasoned practitioner will utilize the feedback that you share in subsequent steps.

People can probably be helped with this method because of the bilateral stimulation, the rescripting and exposure effect, but I don't understand why a therapist wouldn't use EMDR instead. It was already proven effective for PTSS when ART was 'invented' and is a lot more researched. This doesn't mean ART can not or does not work, it's just that I do not understand why someone wants to become an ART practitioner when almost all of it is based on previous EMDR findings? My 50c.

ART practitioners are encouraged to incorporate other approaches including EMDR. ART is more than eye movement and incorporates specific scripts or sets of directions for different kinds of clinical processes. You don't get those with EMDR. Also, I think the training for ART may be more simple and straightforward. A total of three days of training for Basic, the two days each of Advanced and Enhanced completes the entire training. There are other adaptations that you find out about outside of the formal trainings, but you are fully trained after seven days. That may be less than it takes to get fully trained in EMDR. Does anyone else know what the full gamut of EMDR involves?

When I learned about NLP I felt the same way about EMDR, because NLP was using eye movements since the 70's. But I see what you're saying. It seems to me, from reading, (I have not been trained in it), that ART - accelerated resolution therapy is a combination of EMDR and Somatic Experiencing, which is also a form of EmoTrance. Working with body sensations (also NLP based), is a HUGE improvement because it takes less sessions and has less problems between sessions than EMDR. (There is also EMT, a do-it-yourself eye-movement technique. Also in the Meridian Energy Therapies, such as EFT, eye-movements are used in addition to meridian 'tapping' to help the person process and integrate the issue being worked on ) There is also EMI which is an eye movement based therapy. I think a lot of therapies evolve and combined as we learn more and practice. I think it's unfair to say she "made some adjustments and re-named it" because there is research on ART in professional journals, which is not as easy as just renaming something. It's been through clinical trials and shown to be, like EMDR, an evidence-based therapy technique with significant differences. I think they are all fascinating and its a good thing that treatment for trauma is improving and has several options. Maybe EMDR was the first to be written about, but not every therapy has to go back and review the history of what came first, or we'd all still be talking about Freud, as if his techniques couldn't be improved upon. Every field grows and evolves and no one person has all the answers. Years ago I learned an awesome healing technique that I tweaked a bit. But I was so wrapped up in what to call it and who to credit for it and how to explain it, it never got off the ground - because I was too caught up in that fear of teaching it the wrong way. This was from taking seminars years ago that had me sign non-disclosure agreements, like their techniques were secret (and expensive) and I thought it was wrong to combine techniques, etc. ( Thanks for reading my personal opinion. )

But she kept claiming it was about erasing the original memory (perspective) through this 2 minute process, and no, Im not buying it. But, what she was describing in changing the perspective of the event, re-framing it, is the key. Trauma is about powerlessness, an experience where you had absolutely no control over your experience, and thats what affects people afterward. Feeling apprehension about horrific things that could happen to you at any moment that you cant prevent, endure or escape. But, when you can enter the event in your power, you are no longer powerless to prevent unbearable suffering that previously your emotional intensity began to relive. So, there's value there. But thank you for adding depth to this method.
