Vocal Science: Fixing Voices Is Not Just Our Full Time Job, It Is Our Full Time Passion!!
We truly love to transform lives and put people back into their “vocal shoes”, (like one of our clients from the past professed to us).
We
work with regular people with speech problems and with those who want to turn
their speaking voice into their profession. We also work with people who just
simply want to learn how to sing better. And, respectively, we work with
professional singers who either want to prevent their voice from damage, or who
already had damaged it. And are now in need of non-surgical voice repair.
If we
are talking about any voice repair cases at all, we are talking about a very
complex approach to treatment, which, first of all, includes psychological
counseling, and thus helps to identify the actual cause of ones’ vocal trauma.
Sometimes,
their vocal (and other related) problems have very deep roots lying beneath. And
thus, from my side, it requires a lot of skillful experience, as well as true
desire and passion to really get to the bottom of it in order to recover that
voice (i.e., shut-down and wounded spirit).
I always say that I love what I do and I do what I love.
And
in order to work with those damaged voices, and not only vocally injured individuals,
you really have to have a true passion to deliver the actual result.
Nevertheless,
our students, (patients), coming to us from all walks of life.
They
possess different cultures, different colours, different heights and weights.
What they have in common is that they are all human beings with sound (and
sometimes, not too sound) minds, with the emotions which some of them “wear on
their sleeves”, but some have their emotions completely suppressed.
To
work with the latter, it is much more difficult, as these individuals are
obviously not very open and also very afraid to reveal how hey really feel.
Moreover, they withhold very important information, which could be crucial with
respect to their healing process.
When
I finally break through those individuals, I see a lot of interesting
reactions: like, for example, uncontrollable tears or uncontrollable laughter. Yet
again I have to be very sensitive and very gentle towards their feelings in
order to use their natural human reactions towards their benefit.
Once
I am able to “get hold of them” I am able to turn their lives around and practically
“resurrect them” back to their normal lives and their normal (and even more so
improved), voices.
To
deal with the above, you really have to love it and feel positive and passionate
about it, which I DO… on an everyday basis.
