Safe and Sound Protocol
(SSP)

What is SSP?

The Safe and Sound Protocol is a non-invasive therapeutic listening tool which helps regulate the listener’s nervous system. This intervention is based on Polyvagal theory.

SSP delivered by an Occupational Therapist.

A regulated nervous system is more capable of:

• Resilience

• Feeling safe and grounded

• Problem solving and thinking logically

• Connecting with others

The Safe and Sound Protocol is implemented with 5 hours of listening in total.

The listening is facilitated by a trained clinician. The listening can occur in our clinic or at your home.

The delivery of the SSP is adapted to suit the listener’s nervous system needs to achieve the best outcome.
