Gender-Affirming Voice Workshop in Collaboration with Gender Reveal

Wednesday, July 20, 2022 7:00-8:00 pm (EST)

There is no one way femininity or masculinity should look or sound. This is an interactive workshop on how gender-affirming voice and communication services can help trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming youth/adults embody voice and communication skills that are affirming, authentic, and help build self-confidence. 

Jordan will talk about the complexity of modifying one’s voice based on his client’s desires, rather than perpetuating stereotypes or pushing a cis-centric focus on how someone’s voice should sound. Jordan will teach participants voice exercises related to pitch, resonance, intonation, and breath support. He will also cover topics like the effects of testosterone on the vocal folds, pitch raising surgery, and counseling activities he incorporates in sessions with his clients.
