About Resonant Speech
Areas of Service
Resonant Speech specializes in Gender Affirming Voice Services for clients who wish to explore the potential of their voice. Services are designed to center trans, two spirit, non-binary and gender expansive experiences.
Additionally, we offer Speech Language Therapy to support the development of natural, self-generated language and symbolic communication for children and adults who communicate using scripts or echolalia. This approach is particularly useful for gestalt language processors and autistic children. This work is done with a neurodiversity affirming framework.
Approach
We use a client-centered, affirming, evidence-based practice to address each individual's unique needs.
Gender Affirming Voice Services help clients explore pitch, resonance and vocal style with support from a certified speech-language clinician. This work is open to all genders at any point in life. We believe gender euphoria is a valid goal.
Neurodiversity Affirming Speech-Language Therapy sessions are play-based and include consultation with families to support language development at home. Find a resource to learn more about what we mean by neurodiversity affirming here.
