Safe and Sound Protocol
Our emotional and physiological state are critical to how we approach any task at hand. When someone is in a better state of control, not only can he/she be more socially engaged, he/she is more open to therapy. Better state of regulation improves therapeutic outcomes. The non-invasive intervention involves listening to music that has been processed specifically to retune the nervous system (regulating state), to introduce a sense of safety, and the ability to socially engage. This allows the client to better interpret not only human speech, but, importantly, the emotional meaning of language. Once interpersonal interactions improve, spontaneous social behaviors and an enhanced ability to learn, self-regulate and engage are often seen. So how do we achieve this state of regulation? The answer is the Safe and Sound Protocol.
The Safe and Sound Protocol is a research-based therapy designed to achieve significant results in just five days. It is intended for the following areas:
Social and emotional difficulties
Auditory sensitivities
Anxiety and trauma related challenges
Inattention
Stressors that impact social engagement
This five-day intervention designed to reduce stress and auditory sensitivity while enhancing social engagement and resilience. By calming the physiological and emotional state, the door is open for improved communication and more successful therapy.
