find your voice

For trans women, their voice can be a major source of anxiety and embarrassment. Their voice can also continually out them both on the phone and in person. While trans men see voice deepening as part of their hormone therapy, trans women do not see vocal changes with hormone therapy. This is because the effects of testosterone on the vocal folds are permanent. A licensed voice therapist can work with you to increase the pitch and resonance quality of your voice, as well as help you develop more feminine speech characteristics. Voice therapy is much more affordable than a laryngoplasty, and is much less risky and harmful to your vocal folds.
