Parkinson's Voice Volume group

This clinic is led by Carla Rohde, Speech and Language Therapist and LSVT-certified clinician, and Jen Whitfield. It was originally established by Dr Kate Trott and Carla Rohde.

The Parkinson's Voice Volume group meets weekly on Wednesdays, for ten-week blocks, during semester time. The clinic is run online via telehealth sessions. Clients attend from their homes.

People in the group are usually referred to us from local NHS speech and language therapists for regular support and practice with their voice. Some people in the group have previously completed the Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT) programme.

They can benefit from our weekly ongoing support and activities to help maintain their new loud voice. Other people in the group have not completed the LSVT programme but benefit from learning techniques for maintaining a good voice.
