Attune to Safety through the Auditory System

At The Taproot Counseling & Somatic Wellness Center, we offer the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP)—an evidence-based sound therapy designed to help regulate the nervous system and attune to sounds of safety in the environment. By using specially filtered music, SSP gently retrains the brain to respond to stress in a healthier, more adaptive way.

How SSP Supports Healing

  • Reduces Anxiety and Stress – Helps shift the nervous system from survival mode to a state of calm.
  • Enhances Emotional Regulation – Improves resilience and the ability to process emotions effectively.
  • Supports Trauma Recovery – Aids individuals who feel stuck in patterns of fear, hypervigilance, or disconnection.

How SSP Works

  • Assessment & Customization – A personalized plan based on individual needs.
  • Listening Sessions – Specially designed music played in a structured format to stimulate nervous system regulation.
  • Guided Integration – Sessions are combined with therapeutic support to reinforce positive changes.
  • Ongoing Benefits – As the brain adapts, clients experience long-term improvements in emotional and physiological balance.

What to Expect

SSP is a non-invasive, gentle approach to healing. Many clients notice a greater sense of calm, improved social engagement, and better emotional flexibility after completing the program. The effects build over time, making it a powerful tool for lasting transformation.
