Trans Voice Help

Hi! This community exists as a place for trans people of all genders (or gender fluidity, or non-binary etc.) to help them overcome the challenges of being able to speak normally as their preferred gender. Upload audio clips, screenshots from analyzers, or what ever you feel like in order to get feedback and help perfected the voice you have into a state where you are comfortable.
Rules
These are going to be fairly open, since I trust that most posts here are seeking genuine help.
- No shaming. This should be obvious. People are looking for help and advice here.
- Absolutely no transphobic rhetoric will be tolerated. One warning (with a timeout), then a ban.
- If you post an audio file, keep it SFW. We don't need to hear that stuff.
- Keep criticisms pertinent and overall kind. Part of this whole thing is practice. We shouldn't expect immediate improvement.
- This is a zero politics zone. If you bring them up, goodbye.
- No slurs (I hate that I feel this is necessary)
- If you have negative feedback, do so in a constructively respectful manner while remembering that this kind of thing is a journey and can't be immediate.
- This being the internet, help with voice mod stuff is encouraged. It can make a huge difference for someone with voice dysphoria if others hear them they way they wish to sound.
- These rules are not necessarily exhaustive, and if you are generally a jerk or toll, expect a ban
Welcome! As I find them, I will be linking resources in this sidebar.

Are you in the U.S.? You can try to research the speech therapist to see what their credentials are, it's not uncommon for a speech therapist to get licensed as a speech language pathologist. The point is that you want to see someone with some training, not just a coach for example.
You might start by seeing your primary care physician and asking for a referral. The doctor is used to sending people to other specialists and may have a name on hand already.
