Working with Trans Voice - A Guide to Support and Inspire New, Developing and Established Practitioners (Paperback)

• Trans and non-binary people deserve quality, affirmative and culturally sensitive which is offered in all voice services, not only in specialist clinics. • The tidal wave in referrals of trans and non-binary people to gender services including voice and communication therapy has created a training crisis – the book will help to address this. • Speech and language therapists need an easy way in to the field, as this is a very politicised field, and SLTs are often afraid to begin – this book will enable them to start and develop their journey • There is little client community collaboration in health care literature – this book provides stimulation and an appreciation of the real stories and advice from trans and non-binary people • In general, cisgender people, such as most SLTs find themselves to be, require supportive guidance in understanding gender identity and expression, and it is very rewarding for SLTS to have a deeper understanding of our systemic identities – this book facilitates this understanding.
