Meet Laura

 

I am a Certified Practicing Speech Pathologist, performer, and certified yoga instructor.

I have extensive experience in helping clients to reach their communicative potential as a speech pathologist and have completed additional training in voice therapy, singing and gender affirming voice training. When working with clients, I draw upon more than 20 years of experience in the performing arts as a classically trained singer, actor and (terrible) dancer.

Since officially launching Laura Kennedy Speech Pathology in 2020, I have worked exclusively with adults and children with voice disorders or vocal concerns. This includes singers, actors, professional voice users (e.g., teachers) and other professionals who rely on their voice.

With a background in musical theatre and opera, I combine creativity and evidence-based practice to help performers reach optimal vocal performance.

It’s an absolute pleasure to offer voice training to gender non-conforming people, including the peri-operative support to clients seeking voice feminisation/gender affirming vocal surgery.

Away from the clinic, I can be found at a theatre or out and about with my husband and two young daughters.
