SUMMARY:Psychotherapy Skills for Voice 🇬🇧
DESCRIPTION:A four-week experiential course introducing psychotherapeutic thinking for professionals working with voice\, particularly where voice difficulties intersect with emotion\, identity\, relationships\, trauma\, functional neurological symptoms\, psychogenic presentations and persistent physical symptoms.\nThe course is not designed to train participants to become psychotherapists. Instead\, it develops the capacity to think psychotherapeutically within an existing professional role: to notice what is happening relationally\, psychologically and somatically during voice work\, to ask better questions\, and to recognise when the voice problem may be communicating something that cannot be understood through vocal mechanics alone.\nEach three-hour session combines theory\, clinical discussion and supervised practical work in breakout rooms.\n\nWeek 1 — Thinking Psychotherapeutically\n\nFrom voice problem to person\n\nThe opening session establishes the basic architecture of psychotherapy and considers what can be borrowed safely and ethically by voice practitioners.\n\nCore principles include the therapeutic relationship\, therapeutic frame and therapeutic contract. Particular attention is given to boundaries\, confidentiality\, consent\, role clarity\, scope of practice and the difference between doing psychotherapy and working psychotherapeutically.\n\nPractical: Participants work in breakout rooms to practise beginning a voice consultation psychotherapeutically. This includes contracting\, establishing safety\, taking a psychosocial voice history\, using open questions\, tolerating silence\, listening for meaning rather than immediately problem-solving\, and noticing what happens in their own body while listening.\n\n\nWeek 2 — The Relationship in the Room\n\nTransference\, countertransference and what happens between people\n\nThis session introduces the development of psychoanalytic and relational thinking\, moving from Freud through object relations and contemporary relational approaches.\n\nParticipants explore transference: how previous relational experiences can become organised within present clinical relationships. Alongside this\, countertransference is considered not simply as interference from the practitioner\, but as potentially useful information about the interpersonal field.\n\nApplied to voice practice\, this raises important questions. Why might one patient make us want to rescue them while another makes us feel ineffective? What happens when a patient desperately wants the practitioner to fix their voice? What happens when improvement itself feels threatening? How might dependency\, authority\, performance\, shame\, compliance or resistance enter the clinical encounter?\n\nPractical: Breakout-room exercises explore relational dynamics within simulated voice consultations\, including rescuing\, reassurance\, silence\, resistance\, dependency and practitioner discomfort.\n\n\nWeek 3 — The Body in Psychotherapy\n\nThinking somatically about voice\n\nThe third session moves explicitly into body psychotherapy and somatic approaches.\n\nParticipants consider the body not merely as the location in which psychological distress produces symptoms\, but as an active component of emotional regulation\, perception\, memory\, defence and interpersonal communication.\n\nThe session introduces embodiment\, autonomic regulation\, interoception\, muscular guarding\, breath\, posture\, movement and bodily patterns of protection. These concepts are related critically to contemporary understandings of functional neurological disorder (FND)\, functional voice disorder\, psychogenic voice presentations and persistent physical symptoms.\n\nRather than assuming that symptoms are either physical or psychological\, participants develop a biopsychosocial formulation in which nervous-system processes\, attention\, expectation\, learning\, relationships\, emotion\, bodily experience and social context can interact.\n\nPractical: Participants practise a somatically informed consultation\, including noticing bodily responses\, inviting description rather than interpretation\, tracking changes in voice and body\, and exploring symptoms without imposing psychological meaning upon them.\n\n\nWeek 4 — Psychotherapy for Voice\n\nBringing the model together\n\nThe final session integrates relational\, psychological and somatic thinking into a coherent approach to complex voice presentations.\n\nParticipants explore functional and psychogenic voice disorders through formulation rather than simplistic psychological causation. Particular consideration is given to identity\, performance\, threat\, loss\, shame\, interpersonal conflict\, occupational demands\, trauma\, symptom meaning and the possibility that patterns which once served a protective function may become maladaptive.\n\nThe session also addresses an essential clinical distinction: when to explore\, when to remain with the voice\, and when to refer.\n\nParticipants consider multidisciplinary working with ENT\, speech and language therapy\, singing voice rehabilitation\, psychology\, psychotherapy and other healthcare professionals.\n\nPractical: Participants conduct an extended case consultation in breakout rooms\, moving from contracting and history-taking through relational and somatic observation to a provisional biopsychosocial formulation and appropriate plan.\n\nBy the end of the course\n\nParticipants should be able to establish a clearer therapeutic frame within voice work; undertake a more psychologically and relationally informed voice history; recognise elementary transference and countertransference processes; use basic somatic enquiry appropriately; formulate functional or psychogenic presentations without reducing symptoms to “all in the mind”; recognise the limits of their professional role; and make more appropriate decisions about onward referral and multidisciplinary care.\n\nThe course is delivered in English by Stephen R King MSc\, Body Psychotherapist specialising in voice problems.\n\n\nAre you from outside the German-speaking region and having trouble with our registration form? \nNo problem! Simply send us an email at info@semifobi.de\, and we’ll take care of the registration for you! \nPayment is possible via international bank transfer. \nPlease send us the following details: \n* First name\n* Last name\n* Address\n* Country\n* Phone number\n* Email address\n* Date of birth \nThank you very much for your booking! \nPlease note that your ticket confirmation email will initially be sent in German.

SUMMARY:Vocal Massage Training – 6‑day Manual Therapy with Stephen King
DESCRIPTION:Join this 6‑day intensive Vocal Massage Training – Manual Therapy course with Stephen King and deepen your hands‑on skills in manual techniques that directly support voice and orofacial function. Whether you work in logopedics\, speech‑language therapy\, voice pedagogy\, physiotherapy\, osteopathy or performing arts\, this training offers a unique opportunity to learn manual therapy for the voice from one of the few therapists worldwide who combines clinical massage\, vocal science and manual therapy in one integrated approach. Stephen King is internationally recognized for his “pain-free practice” methodology — a paradigm that rejects the outdated notion of “good pain” in therapy. In this approach\, any sensation of pain is considered an indicator of potential threat\, not therapeutic progress. \nWhat you will learn in this 6‑day program\nOver six days you will explore manual techniques for the extrinsic and intrinsic laryngeal muscles\, the cervical spine\, hyoid region\, jaw\, tongue\, diaphragm and related myofascial chains. You will learn how to apply vocal massage and manual therapy to address muscle tension dysphonia\, vocal fatigue\, strain‑related voice disorders\, jaw‑ and neck‑related voice problems and functional voice changes embedded in broader orofacial and postural patterns. The focus lies on safe\, evidence‑informed\, gentle techniques that can be integrated into existing voice or therapy concepts. \nThe seminar is also suitable for participants with basic English skills. On the one hand\, there will be someone available to translate or assist with language questions\, and on the other hand\, most techniques will not only be explained theoretically but also demonstrated in practice. \nManual Therapy in a bio‑psycho‑social\, voice‑oriented framework\nRather than treating the larynx in isolation\, this course embeds vocal massage and manual therapy into a bio‑psycho‑social\, voice‑oriented framework – similar in spirit to Stephen King’s broader E‑QUATION concept. You will learn how to view muscle tension\, vocal load\, stress\, posture and breathing as interacting elements in a client’s voice health. This allows you to shape treatment plans that are patient‑centred\, functionally oriented and designed to support long‑term vocal self‑management. \nWho is this course for? Vocal Massage in practice\nThis seminar is designed for: \n\nSpeech‑language therapists and logopedists working with voice disorders\, muscle tension dysphonia\, functional voice changes and vocal fatigue.\nVoice teachers\, singing teachers and voice coaches who want a safe\, manual‑based understanding of laryngeal and para‑laryngeal structures.\nPhysiotherapists\, osteopaths and manual therapists interested in voice‑related structures and the interface between posture\, breathing and the larynx.\nPerforming artists and voice professionals who wish to deepen their own body‑awareness and learn how manual therapy can support vocal recovery and resilience.\n\nRegardless of your background\, you will leave with a clear\, practical understanding of when and how to apply vocal massage and manual therapy for the voice in a responsible\, non‑invasive way. \nFrom theory straight into practice – with a master of the field\nThe course is highly hands‑on and practice‑oriented\, with plenty of supervised practice\, feedback and case discussions. You will learn how to integrate vocal massage into screening\, warm‑up / warm‑down routines\, exercises and self‑care protocols\, so that the techniques are directly applicable in your daily work. Stephen King brings not only his clinical expertise but also his experience as a vocal‑care practitioner and educator\, making complex anatomy and physiology accessible and immediately useful. \nYour one‑time Vocal Massage Training with Stephen King in Germany\nThis 6‑day Vocal Massage Training – Manual Therapy with Stephen King is a rare opportunity to experience this specialisation in Germany. The course is taught in English\, making it ideal for German‑ and international professionals who want to learn from an established expert in a small\, focused group setting. Register early – this vocal‑focused manual therapy training with Stephen King in Germany is offered only once in this format.
