Abstract

Transgender people can engage in a number of procedures to deal with the incongruence between their physical gender and the one with which they identify. One of the experts involved in the process of gender transition is a speech-language pathologist (SLP), whose role is to collaborate with the client on the goal to develop vocal, language and communication behaviors that match the desired gender identity. This case report presents one such collaboration, which included voice and communication therapy for a male-to-female transgender person aimed at the voice feminization.
