Safe & Sound Protocol Application
Hello! I appreciate your interest in the Safe & Sound Protocol and I'm so glad you're here!

My intention for this application is to learn a bit about you, what brings you here and for you to ask me anything you need to know in order to help you feel sure about this therapy and experience with me.

After I receive your application, I will follow up via e-mail* with next steps which include:

a) scheduling a meeting via zoom so we can connect more before you sign up/commit (all applicants - mandatory)
b) signing up to join the cohort of your choice and making your first payment (group applicants)
c) talking about a schedule that suits you and making a plan (individual applicants)
d) joining a waitlist - if cohorts or individual spaces are full (all applicants)


Looking forward to connecting,
Errin
