SoundSelf’s Wefunder Campaign: Bringing Digital Psychedelics to Mental Health Providers

SoundSelf, a pioneering digital therapeutics company, has launched its community investment campaign on Wefunder, offering a unique opportunity for retail investors to support a breakthrough in mental health therapy. At a time when traditional approaches are falling short, SoundSelf stands at the crossroads of ancient practices and cutting-edge technology, ready to transform mental health care with an evidence-based, experiential adjunct for therapies like ketamine.

“We’re inviting our users, supporters, and anyone who sees that the pharmaceutical approach to mental health has failed us to be part of the solution,” says Robin Arnott, co-founder of SoundSelf. “The crisis we’re facing has psycho-emotional roots that require somatic and experiential interventions, not chemical ones.”

The SoundSelf experience is rooted in a biofeedback system that connects the user’s voice with a dynamic mix of sound and visuals. This interactive loop, enhanced by vibroacoustic beds and light therapy glasses, guides patients into deeply meditative and psychedelic-like states. Designed to support ketamine therapy and under investigation as a standalone treatment for conditions like depression and PTSD, SoundSelf is proving to be a game-changer.

The company’s research shows that SoundSelf significantly increases mindfulness, reduces anxiety, and enables profound psychological insights. “SoundSelf doesn’t just support therapy; it opens doors to deeper emotional processing and self-discovery,” explains Dr. Sandeep Prakash, SoundSelf’s Chief Scientific Officer​​.

The science behind SoundSelf is rooted in ancient meditation techniques like vocal toning, a method that has long been used for its calming and healing properties. “If you were to sit and tone for 45 minutes, you’d achieve a meditative state,” Arnott shares. “We amplify this core practice with sensory technology, enhancing attention and directing it inward. That’s how we achieve these groundbreaking results.”

This approach is particularly impactful in ketamine therapy, where SoundSelf plays a crucial role during both preparation and integration. The technology modulates the patient’s breath and voice, calming the nervous system and helping patients surrender to the therapeutic process​​.

Launching on Wefunder, SoundSelf’s investment campaign invites individuals to support a company that has already made waves in the $4.2 trillion wellness market. With a minimum investment of $100, backers have a chance to be part of an innovation that promises not only a strong financial return but a significant societal impact.

“Unlike long-term drug development, SoundSelf is ready for use now, offering immediate therapeutic effects,” says Jeremy Gardner, Founding Partner at Mystic Ventures. “Its scalability and potential for revenue make it a compelling investment. I’ve personally witnessed how even short sessions can bring transformative experiences, often more profound than years of traditional therapy.”​​.

The mental health landscape in the United States is dire, with only one therapist available for every 346 patients. SoundSelf’s mission is to alleviate this crisis by offering accessible and effective digital interventions. As pharmaceutical solutions often come with significant side effects and dependencies, SoundSelf provides a holistic alternative that engages both the mind and body​​.

“Our tools are designed to be both effective and joyful,” Arnott emphasizes. “We aim to empower therapists and healers, providing them with a means to offer transformation that feels rewarding and creative.”

 

SoundSelf’s efficacy is backed by substantial evidence. In clinical settings, patients have experienced rapid reductions in anxiety and significant improvements in psychological well-being after only a few sessions. An EEG study even revealed brainwave patterns similar to those found in experienced meditators and psychedelic states​​.

One compelling case study comes from Cornerstone Psychiatric Care, where SoundSelf was integrated into ketamine therapy protocols. Patients reported not only reduced anxiety before treatment but also deeper emotional processing and prolonged therapeutic benefits. Jessica Shepley, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, shared: “SoundSelf takes ketamine therapy to the next level. A lot of our patients actually have a hard time putting it into words. It’s more the expressions on their faces, the sigh of relief afterward.”​.

Patients have similarly shared their transformative experiences. One patient described, “SoundSelf made the insights from my ketamine session last and integrated them into my everyday life,” highlighting the lasting impact of the technology on mental health treatment​. Another patient remarked, “It wasn’t just an adjunct; it was an enhancement, a deepening of the state I was in,” underscoring the profound emotional shifts SoundSelf can facilitate​.

SoundSelf is actively pursuing FDA clearance as a prescription digital therapeutic. With clinical trials in progress and plans for large-scale studies, the company is poised to set a new standard for digital therapeutics. By leveraging AI for session optimization and tracking biometric feedback, SoundSelf is also developing a robust data infrastructure for personalized care​.

“We’re just scratching the surface,” says Dr. Prakash. “Our future studies will expand into other psychiatric conditions, aiming to make profound mental health transformations accessible and immediate.”
