PRISMA VOICE THERAPY – Bedford, NS
Helping You to Trust and Empower Your Voice
I am here to support you on your journey of voice rehabilitation or affirmation.
A range of voice therapy services are available.
Prisma Voice Therapy, based in Bedford, NS, is here to provide evidence-based treatment and training for voice and communication challenges and for gender-affirming care.
Voice therapy
If you have been diagnosed with a voice disorder such as muscle tension dysphonia (MTD) or are receiving a surgical intervention for voice problems such as vocal nodules, voice therapy is an important step in your recovery process. Voice therapy involves exercise programs and insights that will improve the strength and ease of your voice.
Parkinson Disease
If you are experiencing speech and voice challenges due to Parkinson Disease or another related condition, I offer the intensive and evidence based SPEAK OUT! program to strengthen your voice and help you to improve and maintain your speech.
Gender-affirming voice
As a member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and a committed ally to trans and nonbinary folks, I am proud to offer supportive and person-centered services for anybody seeking to explore and change gendered aspects of their voice and communication.
Telehealth
Services are provided both in-person at the Bedford Commons clinic (30 Damascus Rd., Suite 208, Bedford NS) and online. If you are local to the Bedford / HRM area, I recommend that you come to the clinic for your first appointment for a comprehensive assessment. However, this is your voice therapy and your life – so teletherapy is always available upon request.
Group services
Group services for individuals with muscle tension dysphonia, for Parkinson Disease and related conditions, and for gender-affirming vocal training, are in the works. Stay tuned!
Insurance billing
Private speech-language services are not covered under MSI. However, I bill directly to multiple common insurers, including Medavie Blue Cross, Manulife Financial, Canada Life, GMS, Desjardins, and others. Even if you have a different extended health benefits plan, check your policy to see if speech-language services are reimbursable.
