Voice
Struggling with your voice?
Do you notice your voice becoming husky or strained after a day at work, a rehearsal, or in a noisy social environment? Are you finding it harder to project in meetings or presentations? Have you lost some of your range when singing, particularly the higher notes? These are common signs that your voice may need support.
Specialist voice therapy
We work with individuals experiencing a range of voice difficulties, often following assessment by an ENT consultant.
This may include:
Muscle Tension Dysphonia
Vocal nodules or polyps
Voice changes related to reflux
Vocal fold paralysis
Therapy is tailored to your voice, your goals, and the demands placed on you - whether professional or personal.
Voice care for performers and professionals
You don’t necessarily need a diagnosis to benefit from support. We also offer voice “MOTs” for singers and other voice users who want to maintain vocal health, improve performance, or prevent problems before they arise.
Sessions can be arranged as a one-off review, ongoing maintenance, or a short block of targeted support. We might focus on reducing strain and fatigue, improving projection, or safely extending your vocal range.
With a background in both clinical practice and vocal performance, Katharine understands the unique demands placed on voices in real-world settings - whether you’re a singer, teacher, actor, or someone who simply relies on their voice every day.
Support that works for you
Whether you’re recovering from a diagnosed voice condition or looking to strengthen and protect your voice, we can work together to help you feel more confident, comfortable and in control of how you use it.
We can work with private funders or those with health insurance such as BUPA, AXA or Aviva.

Teachers and other professionals who rely on their voice are at increased risk of developing voice difficulties. Factors such as reflux, respiratory infections, frequent throat clearing, persistent coughing and vocal strain can all impact voice health—particularly in demanding, often noisy, working environments.
Research suggests that 50–70% of teachers will experience voice problems at some point in their career, often leading to time away from work. Voice disorders are widely recognised as a significant occupational health issue for those in voice-heavy roles, including education.
Developing good vocal technique and understanding how to care for the voice is essential—not only to maintain performance at work, but also as part of an employer’s duty of care and to help reduce absence related to voice problems. Early education and timely intervention can make a meaningful difference.
If you work with the voices of others—such as in choirs, teaching, or the performing arts—you play an important role in supporting the vocal health of those you lead. With the right knowledge and awareness, you can help create an environment where voices are used safely, confidently and sustainably.
Understanding how to recognise early signs of vocal strain, alongside simple, practical strategies to reduce risk, can make a real difference in preventing injury and maintaining vocal performance. With the right support, protecting and developing healthy voices can feel both manageable and rewarding.
