Speech therapy?

[HotelUser]

A friend of mine's brother has what I guess most people would consider a "camp voice". He says he's straight and doesn't try to put the voice on. That got me thinking, there's many youth I hear with these sort of voices, but not many adults. Is there such a therapy people can go to, that specializes in getting rid of this way of speaking, if the person can't help but to speak this way?

Speech therapists exist for all ages, you can use them if you got a lisp or something or even if you just want to speak more eloquently although that's usually a specialist type of speech therapist

Same! THHHH like a rabbit!
I think they're available for all ages but I doubt they would be able to change voice pitches...

There is, but people should be comfortable with their voice no matter what :)

I didn't know people could have speech therpay for voice pitches and tings.

My younger cousin has Dyspraxia so she gets speech therapy at school and it really has helped her a lot, it's amazing how much she's come on.

I don't believe a speech therapist can help you stop talking camp.

I guess the only way you can prevent yourself by talking in away is by practicing your desired voice, and putting it into practice. Other than that I reckon your stuck with the voice you've got.

[hah]

no but you can have surgery to change you voices pitch
