ALYSSA


Alyssa McCarthy (she/her)
BA Mus., MSc SLP,  SLP(C), Reg. CASLPO
Registered Speech-Language Pathologist/Voice Therapist
Gender Affirming Voice Focused
Singing Voice Specialist 

Alyssa (she/her) is fuelled by connection, creativity, and flexibility, and  helping others find their voice is the “why” behind her work. She blends science, artistry, and coaching to support meaningful, personalized outcomes in voice therapy, gender-affirming voice training, and singing voice rehabilitation.

 

Before training as a Speech-Language Pathologist and Voice Therapist, Alyssa earned her undergraduate degree as a classically-trained soprano, taught singing lessons, performed professionally, including leading roles in musical theatre and pianist/back-up singer for indie rock/folk bands. After recovering from autoimmune-induced vocal injury, she discovered her passion for helping others navigate the challenges in voice and identity incongruence. Alyssa went on to deepen her clinical experience in stroboscopic laryngeal evaluations, singing voice rehabilitation, and gender-affirming voice.

 

Over the past nine years, she has worked with hundreds of adults across Ontario and Nova Scotia, including extensive experience supporting Trans+ and gender-queer clients on their gender-affirming voice journeys. With a focus on exploration, play, and guided voice embodiment, Alyssa takes an individualized, creative approach to helping each person (re)connect with their voice.
