Voice, and the Problems of Self Protection: PART 2
Send us a message
We continue the conversation we started in Part 1, and go on to talk about how fear, safety, and habit can shut down a healthy-looking voice and how to restore freedom with calm breath, gentle exposure, and compassion. Functional voice loss, hypersensitivity, and clear boundaries between coaching and therapy shape a humane approach to vocal change.
• the guarded larynx and fear avoidance loop
• resilience as faster return to baseline
• hypersensitivity, globus and the close-cough cycle
• desensitising with calm breath and small wins
• functional neurological voice loss and conflict over speaking out
• a case of lost high range resolved through joyful sound
• ethics, scope of practice and supervision
• teamwork across clinic, coaching and therapy
• kindness over public shaming to unlock authentic sound
Drop us a line, be in touch, and until we meet again, I hope that your voice finds the space it needs to be really heard
