Developed by Scarlett Williams, LPC in 2021, Target 2 Zero is a new modality that includes Movement therapy, EMDR, EDMR 2.0, and current neuroscience research.
Adverse or traumatic events are often stored like a short video. Details of these events cause symptoms or activation for most individuals. Editing the details of the memory alleviates the symptoms. Target 2 Zero is a simple technique that typically takes 5 to 20 minutes to facilitate for an individual.
When a experience is between bothersome and life threatening our brain holds onto this information to keep us safe in the future.
When the memory is activated be it by protoception, smell, taste, sound,touch or sight it causes bothersome symptoms.
Reconsolidating the memory alleviates the symptoms.
Rapid Event Reconsolidation
Current Standards
The current gold standards for care after an individual experiences adverse events are Cognitive Processing Therapy, EMDR, and Prolonged Exposure Therapy. Veterans Affairs states that 53 out of 100 people will no longer meet the criteria for PTSD after 6 weeks to 6 months of these gold standard therapies.
Development
There has to be something that works better and faster right? Who wants to have these symptoms for 6 weeks or 6 months? I know that I don't want to or have my clients have symptoms for such a long time, so I developed Target 2 Zero.
Application
Target 2 Zero is 86% faster than EMDR while decreasing PTSD symptoms by 84% in just 2 to 7 hours of treatment.
This is an efficient and effective protocol. It is very easy to understand as well as to utilize for clients.
Target 2 Zero provides theory, strong methodology, and data collection to achieve excellent results.
