What it is * * * ## Letting the body do the teaching. Biofeedback uses live information from your body — your heart rhythm, your breath, the way your nervous system responds to sound — and reflects it back to you in a way you can actually work with. Over time, that feedback loop helps a system that's been braced for a long time start to find a steadier baseline. HeartMath * * * ## Heart-rate coherence. HeartMath focuses on the rhythm between your breath and your heart. Practising that rhythm, with feedback, can shift how your body handles stress and settle a nervous system that's been running hot. [Read more about HeartMath →](/approaches/heartmath) Safe and Sound Protocol * * * ## Sound as a doorway to regulation. The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) uses specially filtered music to cue the social engagement system — the part of the nervous system that lets us feel safe with ourselves and with other people. I'm a Certified SSP Provider. [Read more about SSP →](/approaches/safe-and-sound-protocol) How we use it * * * ## As support, not the whole story. Biofeedback sits inside our ongoing therapy, not in place of it. We'd only bring it in when it's clearly a fit, and we'd pace it around what your system can actually take on. Common questions * * * ## What people ask. What's the difference between biofeedback and neurofeedback? Neurofeedback works with brainwave activity. Biofeedback works with other body signals — like heart rhythm or the cues your nervous system takes from sound. They're related but distinct, and I offer them as separate supports. Which type of biofeedback is right for me? That's something we figure out together. HeartMath and the Safe and Sound Protocol do different things, and we'd only bring either one in when it's clearly a fit for where you are. Take the next step * * * ## Ready when you are. Reach out to talk about fit and fees. Consultations are a low-pressure conversation — we'll see if working together feels right.
