My therapist told me that I might benefit from accelerated resolution therapy (ART). I am curious if anyone here has tried it, if so, please tell me about your experience.
My therapist recommended ART to me not exactly because of trauma, but because I have a very intense emotional reaction to just thinking about having to be in a particular situation that I've never even experienced. I've built it up so much that talking about it at all immediately launches me into an anxiety attack, so I believe she's recommended it to me so I can change these negative thoughts to positive ones without needing to speak about it.
It seems like nobody has made a thread about ART before, so maybe it is uncommon enough that not many people will have experience with it. Please tell me about your experiences if you've had any.
