Welcome To Bayside Voice Centre

Located in Brisbane’s eastern suburb of Cleveland, our Certified Practising Speech Pathologist, Jenny Matthews would love to help you develop a strong, enduring and reliable voice.

If your voice is an essential tool for your occupation then you know how important it is to care for your voice.  Teachers, public speakers, actors, singers, radio announcers, call centre operators, tour guides and more, all rely on their voice on a daily basis and can unknowingly place a significant strain on their voice if they have not been taught strategies and techniques to protect and optimise their voice.

At Bayside Voice Centre we are all about providing education and voice training to prevent vocal damage and as a Certified Practising Speech Pathologist, Jenny has the expertise to provide voice therapy to help repair a damaged voice.

Do You Have The Voice You Want?

Your voice is an important part of your profession so it can be discouraging to be limited when your voice doesn’t perform.   Your voice can be used intensively without having to feel strained, sore, croaky, breathy or tense.  Through voice training, voice therapy and voice coaching by a Certified Practising Speech Pathologist, with Speech Pathology Australia, you can have a voice that enables you to speak or sing with confidence and enjoyment.  Your voice can be:

  • strong, powerful & confident
  • subtle, poignant & clear
  • easy & enduring
  • relaxed & reliable

Voice Training, Voice Therapy or Vocal Coaching – What’s The Difference?

It can be difficult to know who will provide the best assistance and improvement for your voice.  Where do you begin if your voice is restricting your ability to perform at your peak or connect with your community?

Voice Training

Voice training is preventative and beneficial for anyone who relies on their voice.  Voice training is an important part of the health and safety for workplaces, such as schools or call centres.  Training sessions educate all staff about how to use their voice well and use a quick checklist that may identify staff who are developing poor voice habits.  Workplaces can provide voice training as part of their induction program for new staff to ensure they are providing a safe workplace.

Voice Therapy

Voice therapy is necessary for people with a diagnosed vocal pathology and should be provided by an accredited speech pathologist.  You may be suffering from muscle tension dysphonia, vocal cord damage or other voice conditions.  The good news is that Bayside Voice Centre can help.  We work with your team of professionals, which may include your ENT, GP, singing teacher, return to work officer and family to assist you on the road to recovery and help to optimise your voice for the future.

Vocal Coaching

Vocal coaching can be particularly helpful for people who notice symptoms of vocal strain and fatigue.  It can provide them with strategies and exercises to prevent a pathological problem from developing.  Vocal coaching is also beneficial for anyone who wants to extend their voice to its full potential, such as sports coaches, church singers and speakers.  If you use your voice strenuously, it’s a great idea to have a few sessions to learn to use your voice to its full potential without damage.
