WELCOME!
I’m Caroline Murrah
I am a licensed voice therapist, singing voice specialist, and vocal coach based in Boston, MA.
I hold a Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology from Emerson College and a Certificate in Vocology from the National Center for Voice and Speech through the University of Utah. I helped to establish and now manage a voice center at a major hospital in Boston.
My path to becoming a voice specialist began as a performer. After earning a Bachelor of Music in Musical Theatre from Baldwin Wallace University, I performed in the Broadway National Tour of the musical Fun Home.
My experiences as an actor sparked an interest in mind-body connections affecting my own voice and a passion for helping other performers prevent and manage vocal issues. I completed my voice clinical fellowship at the University of Rochester Medicine Voice Center, where I specialized in the treatment of adult and pediatric voice disorders, with a focus on performing voice rehabilitation.
While I have a particular focus on working with performers and professional voice users, I love working with anyone who wants their voice to feel more strong and reliable, whether that’s singing in choir, reading to their grandchildren, or getting through the day with less strain.
My clinical training has included work at Boston Medical Center’s Department of Otolaryngology, along with specialized training in breathing and manual therapy techniques for addressing muscle tension and inefficient voice use.
I have a strong interest in the connection between the mind and body, along with a research focus on health anxiety and its impact on voice symptoms. I incorporate evidence-based approaches that consider how factors like stress, attention, and thought patterns can influence voice function. My goal is to help others build a voice that feels reliable, efficient, and integrated into their everyday lives.
“I consider myself a mental-health advocate and believe that our inner voices have a strong impact on our outer voices. The way we talk to ourselves matters - and that’s backed by science!”
“Caroline Murrah is a hidden gem...
I have never felt more confident putting my faith in someone else’s hands before. I trusted Caroline with my livelihood and I am so incredibly glad I did!!! She physically knew what it was like to get the results I needed to get back to singing healthfully. A million thank yous aren’t enough!”
