Rapid Resolution Therapy® (RRT) is a groundbreaking approach to treating trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Developed by Dr. Jon Connelly, RRT is a fast-acting, evidence-based therapy that has been shown to effectively resolve traumatic experiences and reduce symptoms of PTSD in a matter of hours or days, rather than the weeks or months required by traditional therapies.

RRT is based on the understanding that traumatic experiences are stored in the body and mind as ” Pictures and Beliefs,” rather than just as memories. These Pictures and Beliefs are the root cause of PTSD symptoms, and they can be changed through a process of “re-imagining” the traumatic experience. During an RRT session, the therapist guides the client through a series of visualization exercises and body-centered techniques to help them re-experience the traumatic event in a safe and controlled environment. This process allows the client to “re-write” the Pictures and Beliefs associated with the trauma, leading to a profound and lasting resolution of the traumatic experience.

Studies have shown that RRT is highly effective in reducing symptoms of PTSD and improving quality of life for individuals who have experienced trauma. For example, a study published in the Journal of Trauma and Stress found that 80% of participants no longer met the criteria for PTSD after receiving RRT, and a follow-up study found that these improvements were maintained at a six-month follow-up.

RRT is also unique in that it is a “bottom-up” approach to trauma therapy, meaning that it addresses the root causes of trauma rather than just its symptoms. This sets it apart from other therapies, which may focus solely on managing symptoms rather than resolving the underlying trauma.

Overall, Rapid Resolution Therapy® is a powerful and effective approach to treating trauma and PTSD. Its fast-acting and evidence-based techniques have the potential to profoundly improve the lives of individuals who have experienced trauma, and its focus on addressing the root causes of trauma sets it apart from other therapies.
