Heidi has worked with the voice since qualifying as a Speech and Language therapist in 1986 from Sheffield University.

She has worked with with adult neurological impairment, acute and chronic swallowing difficulty, dysfluency, and a wide range of voice problems. Although working primarily in the NHS in hospital settings across the country, she now enjoys her independent practice in the South of England.

The process of therapy continues to fascinate her and she shares with her clients the ephemeral and dynamic nature of voice production, both a blessing and a trial as we face our next performance each time we open our mouths.

Heidi acknowledges the learning opportunities her many clients have given and continue to offer her, and will take this experience forward when working with the VCN.
