The SSP program, which is facilitated by qualified and certified professionals, employs a practical bottom-up approach to help people regulate their nervous system more consistently and independently.

How SSP Fits In:
The Safe and Sound Protocol addresses what we would call the "hardware" issues while The Remmert Method addresses "software" changes. Think of your brain and body as a car. There's a lot you can do, as the driver, to make sure you get to where you want to go. You can make sure you're able to drive the car effectively, you can make sure it has fuel, and that your GPS is set for your desired destination. You can also make sure that you stay on the road, avoiding veering off into the wilderness during storms and detours. The Remmert Method helps you, as the driver, to develop your driving skill, change your GPS to match the results you want to achieve, and stay on the road. But if there's an issue with the engine of the car, unless you're a mechanic, you probably won't be able to address that. That's where SSP comes in. |
The Safe and Sound Protocol is Not a stand-alone therapy.
SSP is not designed to be used on its own. You need to be working with a therapist, counselor, or practitioner as well. If you are a Remmert Method client, SSP is a tool to use in addition to The Remmert Method. If you are not a Remmert Method client, we will work with your therapist, counselor, or practitioner to ensure cohesive therapy and that you are fully supported. |
How the Safe and Sound Protocol Works:
SSP programs are delivered through filtered, unfiltered, and calming music especially calibrated to help the nervous system to receive, process, and respond more effectively to cues and signals from our environment. That, in turn, helps us to feel better regulated in the face of challenges. |
What to Expect:
The first step will be to book a free consultation with Steve to determine if the Safe and Sound Protocol would be suitable for you (it's not for everyone). If it is right for you, here's what to expect: 1. We will create an account for you, and you'll receive an email to download the SSP App onto your phone. 2. You will receive a private one-to-one Zoom session with Steve, to get you started. 3. Steve will guide you through listening to the protocol according to your individual requirements and sensitivities. 4. The protocol includes two additional private one-to-one sessions with Steve.* *Additional one-to-one support available for an additional pro-rata fee. |
