Loud holiday parties are fun—but they can be tough on your voice 🎄🗣️

If you find yourself hoarse, strained, or vocally exhausted after gatherings, your voice might be asking for a little extra care. Simple habits like staying hydrated, stepping closer instead of shouting, using good posture, and taking short voice breaks can make a big difference.

Your voice works hard for you all year long. Taking care of it during the holidays is an act of self-care.

If your voice feels tired or uncomfortable after social events, speech therapy can help you learn ways to protect it long-term.

Many people don’t realize that Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome can affect speech, voice, and swallowing—and individuals with EDS are often left searching for answers or told their symptoms aren’t “real.”

At True Self Speech Therapy, we have experience supporting people with EDS who deal with vocal fatigue, swallowing challenges, chronic cough, or muscle tension that impacts daily communication.

Our approach is gentle, collaborative, and trauma-informed. We listen. We believe you. And we tailor therapy so your voice and body feel supported—not pushed.
