Gender-Affirming Voice Therapy in Boise, Idaho & Telehealth Across Idaho
I am Heather L. Robinson, MA, CCC-SLP, a licensed speech-language pathologist practicing since 1992 and founder of Idaho Face & Voice. I specialize exclusively in voice and upper airway disorders, with advanced training in gender-affirming voice therapy and transgender communication training.
I provide affirming, evidence-based voice services for:
– Transgender women seeking voice feminization
– Transgender men seeking voice masculinization
– Nonbinary and gender-diverse individuals
– Individuals seeking confident, authentic communication
– Professional voice users
– Chronic cough, breathing disorders
– Facial retraining therapy
My work centers on helping individuals develop a voice that aligns with their identity — not by changing who they are, but by strengthening expression, resonance, and communication confidence.

Care Philosophy
Voice is deeply personal. It is identity, safety, belonging, and power.
I create a welcoming, affirming environment where LGBTQ+ individuals can explore communication goals without pressure, judgment, or rigid expectations. Therapy is collaborative, individualized, and paced according to your comfort and goals.
Whether you are seeking gender-affirming voice therapy in Boise or telehealth services throughout Idaho, my goal is to help you develop a voice that feels authentic, sustainable, and confidently yours.
My doctor recommended Heather for my voice therapy. I have to say, my doctor actually could not say enough good things. She recommended her because I had some bad history with medical providers and I am very serious about getting better. Heather turned out to be everything my doctor said and so much more. Heather does not give up on you and she is always coming up with something new for you to try. She cares about you and what is going on in your life that might be effecting your treatment. Heather keeps it professional but somehow still leaves you feeling like you just finished an amazingly productive visit with your best friend. I personally feel when you work with Heather you are literally working with the best!
I found my sessions very helpful and would recommend it to anyone seeking vocal therapy
Heather is great. She helped me gain confidence in my voice and the format was easily digestible. Would highly recommend!
I started working with Heather back in 2022 for help with my gender dysphoria. My voice has been one of my largest struggles in my transition, and Heather was instrumental in helping me work through the process of voice feminization. It is challenging work, with no easy path forward, and Heather has helped guide and motivate me through my struggle. She is one of those rare providers who is not only accomplished and exceptionally skilled in her line of practice, but also has enormous compassion and a kind spirit. I always felt comfortable in her office and free to be myself. As someone who also works in the medical field, I can say she is truly special. I would recommend her without hesitation.
Heather has been an absolutely amazing guide in my vocal feminization journey. She is incredibly encouraging and friendly, but also honest when need be. With her help I have been able to meet my goals and be one large step closer to my true self. I cant thank her enough ♥️
Heather is kind, patient and understanding.
She knows and understands how the voice works and to help you achieve your goals.
