Episode 21: Building a Transgender Voice Clinic with Lynn Hawk, MA, CCC-SLP
Lynn Hawk’s Voice and Swallow Clinic was approached by an OB-GYN to build a program that would provide high quality transgender voice therapy. Lynn outlines the steps she and her SLP colleagues undertook to build a program from scratch to meet a rising need in our scope of practice. Lynn discusses the CEUs and expert providers her clinic relied on to learn foundational skills, such as the concept of meta-therapy, prior to rolling out the new program.
Lynn Hawk is a speech pathologist specializing in voice and swallow within the department of otolaryngology at the University of Kansas Health System in Kansas City, Kansas. Lynn started working at the KU Voice and Swallow Center shortly after finishing grad school and has been with the department for a little over seven years. Lynn's case load is split between voice, swallow, and head and neck cancer. Lynn has enjoyed the opportunity to complete a variety of in-depth CEUs and trainings in each aforementioned area of practice.
