-
PCT is a non-directive, empathic treatment approach that helps empower and motivate clients throughout the therapeutic process. This approach involves following the clients’ lead, while providing support, guidance, and structure so that the client can discover individual solutions within themselves, to facilitate change.

The therapy progresses systematically through common cognitive areas that are disrupted by trauma: safety, trust, control, esteem, and intimacy.

Accelerated resolution therapy is an evidence-based therapeutic approach that combines several techniques such as rapid eye movement and image rescripting to reduce the effect of trauma and other psychological stressors.
