Accelerated Resolution Therapy in Calgary and across AB
Write a new story of hope and possibility.
Transformative, empowering psychotherapy for women.
You’ve tried a lot of things to feel better—talking it out, distracting yourself, and just pushing through the pain.
But nothing seems to work—you’re still overwhelmed, stuck, tired of playing distressing memories over and over or disconnected from yourself and the people who matter most. Maybe you’ve been putting therapy off because you just didn’t have the time, energy, or space for it. Deep down, you know you need something different.
Life might look like:
Racing and recurring thoughts
Certain memories or worries keep replaying in your mind making you exhausted and unable to focus.
Big reactions to small things
It feels like you’re on edge all the time, snapping or shutting down over things that wouldn’t normally bother you.Carrying guilt or shame
You often feel like everything is your fault or that you’re not “good enough.”
Feeling distant from others
You feel lonely or isolated, struggling to connect meaningfully even with the people you care about most.
Living in fear
Panic, phobias, or constant worry are running the show, keeping you from living the life you want.Grief and loss
The weight of loss—whether a loved one, a pregnancy, a relationship, or even a dream—may feel too heavy to move through.

You’ve been through enough—now it’s time for change.
What is ART and how does it work?
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a groundbreaking, evidence-based therapy that helps you heal from distressing memories and emotions quickly and effectively. Your brain already has the ability to process and heal from trauma, but sometimes that natural process gets stuck. ART gives your brain the gentle nudge it needs to get back on track.
The best part? Many people notice a significant difference in as little as 1-5 sessions. This process allows you to find freedom and relief so you can move forward now—not years down the road.
Here’s what you can expect:
-
Before we begin, we’ll spend time talking about what’s going on for you now and what you’d like to feel instead. I’ll teach you tools to take home, so you can feel more peaceful and grounded outside of our sessions.
-
You don’t need to talk about your trauma unless you want to. One of the best things about ART is that sharing every painful detail isn’t necessary. This process is in your control, and your brain does the healing work—it already knows how. This often makes it less emotionally draining and more empowering.
-
Sometimes overwhelming experiences get stuck, leaving us with distressing memories, feelings, images, and triggers. ART helps process the pain so it no longer holds power over you. You’ll focus on these images and body sensations, and I’ll guide you through specific eye movements to help your brain reprocess the experiences, making them feel less intense and more manageable.
-
This is where the real transformation happens. Together, we’ll help you rewrite the story and replace negative images or sensations with more positive ones. You’ll walk forward feeling empowered, remembering the facts, but leaving the pain.
