Carolyn Allen is a speech and language therapist, specialising in adult voice problems and adult stammering. Carolyn has worked with singers and actors and can help with any voice difficulty e.g. nodules, papillomas, muscle tension dysphonia, muscle tension dysphagia, spasmodic dysphonia, Reinke's Oedema, vocal cord palsy and globus. Carolyn is also qualified to provide vocal massage which can help to relieve muscular niggles around the neck (including the voice box / larynx), face and head, and 'reset' the voice. She is a member of the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists and her work is regulated by the Health and Care Professions Council.
She is also experienced in working with clients who do not have any obvious voice diagnosis from ENT but for whom their voice is working sub-optimally and not meeting performance-level demands. Carolyn offers services in speech and language therapy, voice therapy, voice manual therapy and stammering therapy. "I am skilled at identifying how individual clients and groups of professional voice users may unwittingly be placing limitations on their vocal potential, and I look forward to finding out what the voice means to you and how we can help you reach your goals".
