When Everything Feels Like Too Much, Start with Sound

Healing with Sound

A Science-Backed Solution for Nervous System Dysregulation

If you feel overwhelmed, emotionally reactive, or chronically stressed, your nervous system may be stuck in survival mode. Our sound-based therapies offer a passive, non-invasive way to retrain your body’s stress response and restore a sense of calm, connection, and clarity. Continue reading to learn about our three options.


Using clinically developed protocols based on neuroscience and polyvagal theory, these listening therapies help you:

  • Sleep better and feel more rested
  • Reduce anxiety and emotional shutdown
  • Improve cognitive function and coordination
  • Feel more open to relationships and therapy


Whether you're navigating trauma, early sobriety, or supporting a loved one in recovery, Healing with Sound offers a structured, accessible way to feel safe and supported, and starts with a pair of headphones. 

Rest and Restore Protocol (RRP)

The Rest and Restore Protocol is a clinical-grade listening therapy designed to help calm and restore both mental and physical functioning. Developed by Dr. Stephen Porges and Anthony Gorry, RRP uses patented Sonocea® sound technology to deliver acoustic signals that support nervous system regulation, emotional balance, and physiological recovery.


This protocol is ideal for individuals experiencing:

  • Chronic stress or trauma-related symptoms
  • Sleep disturbances or fatigue
  • Anxiety, depression, or emotional shutdown
  • Digestive issues linked to nervous system dysregulation


RRP works by embedding biological rhythms into specially engineered musical themes. These rhythms interact with the autonomic nervous system to promote relaxation, enhance interoception, and support the body’s natural healing processes. Clients often report feeling more calm, emotionally present, and physically at ease after just one hour of listening.


Reported Benefits Include:

  • Improved sleep quality
  • Reduced anxiety and trauma symptoms
  • Enhanced emotional regulation
  • Better digestion and gut function
  • Increased openness to therapy and connection


RRP is delivered virtually through a secure platform and includes five hours of progressive listening sessions. It is not a standalone therapy but complements existing wellness and recovery strategies. RRP is best as part of a holistic support plan to help you reconnect with your body, regulate your nervous system, and restore your sense of wellbeing.


Subscription Pricing:

  • $450 for one year of RRP access 
  • Includes a 50 minute 1:1 session for initial set-up. Additional sessions can be purchased separately. 
  • $200 per year to renew subscription and keep listening
  • Multiprogram bundles and family discounts available

Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP)

Unlock Connection and Calm Through Filtered Sound


The Safe and Sound Protocol is a listening therapy designed to help regulate the nervous system and support emotional healing. Developed by Dr. Stephen Porges and based on Polyvagal Theory, SSP uses specially filtered music to stimulate the vagus nerve and promote a sense of safety, calm, and connection.

This protocol is ideal for individuals who:

  • Experience anxiety, depression, or trauma-related symptoms
  • Feel emotionally shut down or disconnected from others
  • Struggle with sensory sensitivities, attention, or social engagement
  • Want to enhance the impact of other therapies like EMDR, CBT, or somatic work


SSP works by delivering music that has been filtered through a patented algorithm to emphasize the frequencies of human speech. These frequencies help the nervous system tune into cues of safety, which can reduce defensive responses and open the door to deeper healing.


Reported Benefits Include:

  • Reduced anxiety and emotional reactivity
  • Improved social engagement and communication
  • Enhanced resilience and emotional regulation


SSP is delivered through a secure app. Clients listen through over-the-ear headphones in a quiet space, with sessions guided and monitored by a certified provider. The protocol includes five hours of listening, typically spread out over several weeks or months depending on individual needs.

SSP is especially helpful for clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, and want a gentle way to begin re-engaging with themselves and others.


Subscription Pricing:

  • $450 for one year of SSP access
  • Includes "one" round of access to SSP Core pathway, which is the main SSP pathway. SSP Connect and SSP Balance, access for the remainder of the year.
  • Includes a 50 minute 1:1 session for initial set-up. Additional sessions can be purchased separately.
  • $200 per year (renewal)
  • Multiprogram bundles and family discounts available
