Enhance Your Emotional Resilience with the Safe and Sound Protocol At Good Company Counseling and Coaching, we are dedicated to providing innovative and effective therapies to support your emotional and psychological well-being. One such therapy is the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a non-invasive, evidence-based treatment designed to help regulate the nervous system and enhance your ability to connect, engage, and thrive.

What is the Safe and Sound Protocol? The Safe and Sound Protocol is a listening-based therapy developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, rooted in his Polyvagal Theory. SSP uses specially filtered music to stimulate and regulate the vagus nerve, which plays a crucial role in controlling the body’s stress responses. This therapy is particularly effective for individuals struggling with anxiety, trauma, autism, and sensory processing disorders.

How the Safe and Sound Protocol Works:

  1. Listening Sessions: SSP involves listening to specifically designed music through headphones. The music is modulated to activate the vagus nerve, which helps shift your nervous system into a state of safety and calm.
  2. Nervous System Regulation: As you listen to the music, SSP promotes a state of relaxation and safety, making it easier to connect with others and process emotions. Over time, this helps reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.
  3. Gradual Integration: The protocol is usually administered in a series of sessions over a few weeks, allowing your nervous system to gradually adapt and integrate the benefits of the therapy into your daily life.

Why Choose the Safe and Sound Protocol?
