This groundbreaking text, now in its second edition, is still the only book of its kind. It is the first resource for speech-language pathologists and voice clinicians who assist transgender/transsexual patients in developing authentic voices, language, and nonverbal communication congruous with their gender identification. This text guides clinicians who work with the transgender/transsexual population in designing and administering a mindful, focused, and efficient treatment plan. Outstanding features include thorough background information on history, sociology, psychology, and medical terminology relevant to this population and the overall role of the voice therapist and speech-language pathologist in the transition of a transgender client. Chapters cover each aspect of a communication training program, including case studies, summaries, appendices and an extensive bibliography. An accompanying Audio CD shows 'before and after' communication therapy examples. The second edition includes: Two new chapters Contributions from two authors who have been through the transgender process and are also voice coaches A new focus on evidence-based data Updated references to the latest research Speech-language Pathologists, ENT physicians, and professors within the areas of singing, theatre, and voice disorders will find this text to be a necessary resource.
