Rezensionen

A book that is not only educational but inspiring and thought provoking

Dr Alison Berner, President of the British Association of Gender Identity Specialists.

Navigating Trans Voicing is a stunning book which goes far beyond its remit of enabling speech and language therapists to be gender affirming in their practice.

Dr Meg-John Barker, internationally recognised author of How to Understand Your Gender, and Gender: A Graphic Guide

Each point is filled with words of wisdom and experience

Nazlin Kurji-Smith, National Adviser in Trans Voice for the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapy
