AS Services: Vocal Training with The Courageous Space

This service is for transgender, gender diverse, and nonbinary people.

Group Session: Introduction to Gender Affirming Voice Training Hosted by The Courageous Space at The Affirmation Station

Join us for a gentle and inclusive group session introducing the foundations of gender affirming voice training. This group is designed for trans and gender diverse people who are curious about exploring their voice in a safe, supportive environment. Together, we’ll learn about how voice and gender expression intersect, explore voice exercises, and build confidence using practical tools. No previous experience is needed - just bring yourself as you are.

About The Courageous Space: The Courageous Space, is a multidisciplinary team dedicated to supporting young people and adults who are gender and neurodiverse. We have an established clinic in Brisbane and late last year, we expanded our services in Melbourne, providing Speech Therapy out of Sum of Us Therapy Hub in Yarraville.

We are a private multidisciplinary practice welcoming those searching for acceptance, support and affirmation. Focusing on support within the LGBTIQAP+ and neurodivergent communities, The Courageous Space wishes to foster authentic relationships with you to breakdown worries and earn trust. Creating a supportive and inclusive environment is our priority. More than anything, we hope to affirm people for who they are and not what society depicts them as. We are passionate about fostering understanding and affirmation within the gender and neurodiverse communities, and we believe that collaboration and partnership are essential in achieving these goals.
