How does the Safe and Sound Protocol work?
The music of the SSP has been filtered through a patented, evidence-based algorithm that highlights specific sound frequencies that help regulate the autonomic nervous system and stimulate the vagus nerve. What this means for you and your clients:
Providers report that the SSP “opens up” their clients and relaxes their defenses, improving accessibility.
As a result, clients often experience quicker progress, becoming more engaged in therapy.
The SSP helps accelerate results and improve therapeutic outcomes.
Once integrated, the SSP often becomes an essential part of a clinical approach.
Impactful, long-lasting results for your clients are possible.
The Science of Safety
By sending cues of safety through specially filtered music, the SSP engages a system of muscles and nerves that support social engagement, stimulating the vagus nerve. This opens the door for other therapies to become more accessible, impactful and accelerated.

Tunes that retune.
The SSP uses a wide variety of music, including some that you may already be familiar with. All the music in the SSP playlists are thoughtfully sequenced and filtered through the patented, evidence-based algorithm backed by decades of scientific research.
This visual shows full-spectrum sound frequencies in a typical, unfiltered clip of popular music.
Here is the exact same clip — after being filtered through the SSP’s algorithm.
What does the music sound like?
The SSP contains several vocal and non-vocal music playlists and levels of filtration to help you support client engagement and participation in the listening process. Multiple vocal and non-vocal playlists allow the SSP to be accessible to many populations, and allow you to customize delivery for your client.
Everyone can benefit from

The SSP is suitable across the lifespan, and has been designed to complement a variety of therapeutic approaches and modalities.
SSP providers are psychologists, therapists, social workers, occupational therapists, speech therapists, school counselors, and more.
The SSP supports many client populations and may be helpful in reducing symptoms and supporting overall health and resiliency for people seeking support for:
- Depression and anxiety
- Neurodevelopmental differences, such as autism, hyperactivity and attention
- Learning difficulties
- Auditory and other sensory processing differences
- Trauma history
- Sleep
- Neurological changes
- Other challenges related to autonomic dysfunction, such as eating difficulties, gut health, and more
The SSP can be combined with and is supportive of other therapies, including:
- Neurodevelopmental treatment, such as occupational therapy, play therapy and sensory integration therapy
- Other forms of mental health and trauma therapies, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Somatic Experiencing (SE), and Internal Family Systems (IFS)
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and other forms of talk therapy (e.g. DBT, MBCT, etc.)
The SSP is trusted by these practitioners and professional organizations as part of their healing toolkit.

Nervous system regulation through listening: The science and applications
In this white paper, we dive into the profound impact of music-based interventions, sound therapies and listening therapies.
In an exploration of science, clinical research and real-world evidence, we aim to enrich your familiarity with bottom-up therapies and how they can complement traditional, top-down approaches to create holistic healing strategies grounded in physiological safety and autonomic regulation.
