DISCLAIMER:
Speaking voice training (SVT) is intended for healthy individuals who need coaching in how to use and strengthen their voices. SVT is not intended to diagnose or treat medical problems. Some vocal problems are accompanied by medical issues and are best addressed by an otolaryngologist (ear-nose-throat doctor/ENT) and/or a speech and language pathologist (SLP).
Also, I am not an expert in transgender voice. If that is something you are looking for, please visit the website of the American Speech-Hearing Association for more information.
