Looking for Unconventional Therapy? Listen to Your Voice

You settled into an armchair. You told your story and listened to the counselor’s reflections. You left feeling a little better for having vented, if only temporarily. The session helped you with some aspects, but it didn’t even begin to address the problem that brought you there.

This is one of the reasons people seek alternatives to traditional talk therapy. Not because talking is useless, but because some difficulties become apparent only within the voice, and in a cold, formal conversation, they’re often difficult to articulate.

If you’ve already tried some form of counseling and still feel stuck, or if you’re looking for a more direct approach, the Inborn Voice method might be right for you. Our voice coaching programs are based on the voice; specifically, the energy and emotions that flow through it. We don’t dwell on the mind or the meaning of words. We focus on the emotions and the personality hidden between one word and the next.

What Do People Mean by Unconventional Therapy?

Traditional talk therapy relies on conversation. A counselor helps you contextualize and examine your thoughts and feelings and what triggers them. However, the Inborn Voice method shifts the focus from the words of your story to the telling of it. Your voice carries much more information than words alone. Our voice-coaching method focuses on the timber, tone, frequencies, resonances, that constitute your unique vocal identity.

The Inborn Voice coaching methodology was developed by Mylena Vocal Coach over thirty years ago. The underlying idea is that every voice is unique, and that a serious journey begins there, not with a one-size-fits-all model. In practice, during a session, we don’t dissect anatomy or interpret speech. We listen to how the voice comes out and what it says about you even before the content itself.

Moving away from traditional therapy doesn’t mean stopping talking or relying on some sort of magic. A Vocal Realignment® session is not a therapy session, and it has a different focus. Thoughts are not the focus of the work. It’s a live interaction, sometimes an exercise, in which you begin to recognize your own emotions and the language conveyed beyond the words. Vocal Realignment® is the Inborn Voice program that realigns your identity, personality, and voice. You’ll work one-on-one with a certified coach who will address your needs, with the most important ones addressed first.

Inborn Voice is not about public speaking (that’s a very small part of Voice coaching), nor is it a series of vocal exercises to be repeated. The main difference between our approach, more traditional talk therapy, and other vocal coaching programs is that we focus on the connection between emotions and the voice, and on vocal identity

Who Is This Program For?

The Inborn Voice method is designed for those who can’t understand or describe their problem in words, or for those who can describe it perfectly but still can’t change it in their daily lives.

It’s suitable for those who realize they have blocks in self-expression. For those who feel like they’re playing a role. For those who, when asked, “How do you feel?” don’t know how to answer. Often, your voice doesn’t reflect who you are, or you simply don’t like it. Others don’t perceive who you truly are.

The first session also serves to determine whether you’re the right fit for this program. It’s not for everyone. We’ll listen to your voice, appreciate its resonances, and quickly assess whether we can help you.

How to Tell a Reputable Professional from a Marketing Gimmick

A reputable professional doesn’t try to sell you their experience. They should also explain what happens in a session, without making promises they can’t support. They tell you what they don’t do. For example, if an ad promises to heal trauma, reprogram the nervous system, or resolve anxiety in three sessions, steer clear. That’s a sales pitch, not a method.

Inborn Voice is voice coaching, not therapy per se. We don’t interpret your thoughts and don’t sell you a cure. We listen to your voice, help you identify and address the emotions communicated through it, and along the way you learn to better express yourself.

The First Step Toward Vocal Realignment®

If more traditional therapy or vocal coaching is working for you, keep going down that path. Changing a path that’s working out of impatience is never a good strategy.

If, on the other hand, you want to explore something in lieu of, or alongside traditional therapy/vocal coaching services, or your main goal is to work on how you express yourself, the next step is to book an online voice assessment session. It only takes 30 minutes!

During that initial session you’ll share what you find difficult and what you’d like to be able to do. We’ll listen, not just for the content of what you say, but for what it reveals about your identity, emotions, and expressive blocks. From there, we’ll provide a preliminary assessment, and if appropriate, a tailored recommendation for further sessions.
