6: Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP) + Brain Spotting with Dr. Marian Miller

Welcome to episode 06 of Transformative Harmonics with your host , Paula Scatoloni, LCSW, SEP.

In this conversation, Paula welcomes longtime colleague Dr. Marian Miller, psychologist, meditation teacher, and faculty member for Transformative Harmonics, to explore how brainspotting, the Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP), and somatic ritual weave together. Marian traces her path from early transcendental meditation and holotropic breathwork to today’s integrative, sound‑based clinical practice, highlighting the science as well as the mystery behind these methods.

Together, they discuss unwinding fascia, repairing attachment wounding, and creating ritual containers that feel more like chosen family than therapy. Marian also shares real‑life stories, including her own birth‑memory healing, showing how these modalities can soften gut tension, release religious trauma, and restore a sense of sacred essence without psychedelics.
