P.M.: It’s extraordinary to experience what voice therapy is doing for me. In voice sessions with Petrie I keep discovering bits of myself that I’d ‘forgotten’. These ‘forgotten’ bits often bring me nearer to healing because they’re now getting the attention they need. What I like about this form of therapy is that my body does the talking – I don’t need to say a lot.

D. P.: In my experience Petrie is a pleasant, calm and understanding therapist who is showing me the way to the source of my true voice. Her method focuses on listening, feeling and experiencing in a practical way. I’m finding more and more colour, depth and space in the sound I produce. Singing is getting easier and easier – and therefore even finer.
