Voice Therapy

CA$0.00

Speech-language therapy for professional voice users and adults experiencing voice disorders: vocal fatigue, muscle tension dysphonia, and changes to vocal quality or strength. Virtual across Toronto and Ontario.

What Is Voice Therapy?

Voice therapy addresses changes in the pitch, volume, or quality of your voice, including:

  • Hoarseness

  • Strain

  • Fatigue

  • Or a voice that no longer feels like it's working the way it should

These changes can stem from vocal fold misuse, muscle tension, professional voice demands, or medical causes like acid reflux. We help you build vocal habits that support the way you use your voice every day, whether that's teaching, presenting, or simply being heard comfortably.

Differences in voice can also happen following traumatic brain injuries, stroke, or via physical injuries to the chest, neck, or face.

  1. Vocal Function Exercises: Strengthening the vocal folds and surrounding system through structured pitch and airflow exercises.

  2. Breath Support Training: Diaphragmatic breathing techniques for steadier airflow and better voice control.

  3. Laryngeal Relaxation Exercises: Reducing muscle tension around the voice box to ease vocal strain.

  4. Resonance & Voice Quality Work: Addressing breathiness, hoarseness, or tension to help your voice sound clear and feel comfortable to use.
