“Your voice is the deepest reflection of your artistry. Invest in it, and it will echo across stages and through time.”

Welcome! I'm Amy Marie

Welcome to Amy Marie Consultancy, a unique haven where the artistry of voice meets the precision of therapy. I am a Voice Specialising Speech-Language Therapist & Manual/Massage Therapist, deeply committed to your vocal excellence and physical well-being.

In the heart of Aotearoa, I have crafted a niche service, standing as one of the few therapists with expertise in Performance Voice Medicine. My practice is a sanctuary for vocalists, speakers, actors, TV/radio presenters & other professional voice users such as teachers, health professionals, politicians & corporate executives who seek to thrive professionally through their voices. With an emphasis on diagnostics, rehabilitation, and injury prevention, my goal is to ensure your voice's longevity and sustainability

My dedication extends beyond individual sessions to empowering workshops on voice sustainability, tailored for a diverse clientele including musicians, educators, and corporate leaders. Additionally, my premier voice mentorship program is designed to elevate speech therapists wishing to get into the field of voice, singing teachers wishing to become singing voice specialists, and elevate dedicated voice users to new heights of mastery over their craft.

For the professional and elite vocalists and musicians, consider me your personal voice coach. Offering on-site services at studios, festivals, and rehearsals, I am there to enhance your warm-ups, guide your cool downs, and provide essential vocal health resources. With real-time acoustic and spectrogram analysis while you perform, I monitor your voice to preempt fatigue and injury, ensuring every performance can be your best & your care plan is always bespoke for YOU.

After the curtain falls, I am still there, offering post-performance solutions to repair, restore and prepare your voice for the next day of voice use. Recognized for my expertise in voice performance, I not only rehabilitate but also partner with you to achieve sustainable vocal brilliance, enabling you to keep signing contracts and seizing opportunities without restraint.

“Vocal health is such an important and hugely underestimated aspect of being a performer and I actually felt quite emotional seeing the Vocalise team at Homegrown. Environments like festivals are often when stress and adrenaline are at their peak and I know that I would be SO grateful to have a vocal team to support me through those moments. I hope to see the team at many more NZ festivals in the near future..”

Jenny Mitchel

“I was having a lot of issues with vocal fatigue and a lot of discomfort and pain around my neck and throat after some extensive touring over summer and had been to countless doctors and was getting pretty concerned.

It took one consultancy with Amy and the Voice Lab Team to start to uncover the core of the problems and start to be able to treat these. Amy and the team assisted me to get the help I needed from vocal physio and took me through a range of techniques for warm ups , warm downs etc. The Voice Lab NZ trained me to start thinking like an athlete and looking after my voice in a way any sportsperson look after their body which is essential to keep up with the amount of singing and touring in my schedule.

The Voice Lab NZ Voice Care Team saved my voice during a nationwide tour and if I hadn’t had them helping me I wouldn’t have been able to complete the vigorous back to back dates.

Every singer and artist should meet with The Voice Lab NZ Voice Care Team and customise their own Programme to be able to stay at the top of their own personal career as a singer and performer.

I am super grateful I found The Voice Lab NZ and for everything they have taught me around looking after my instrument. “

“It was awesome to meet the girls and see the genuine love and passion, to not only help vocal artists better their craft but look after their voices. As a new up and coming singer it was cool to get a better understanding of how to look after our instrument (Voice), and know that there are people out there to help. Big ups to The Voice Lab nz team, look forward to working with you guys in the future. 🙏🏼”

Jessie Biddle , Lost Tribe Aotearoa

“After recent surgery which led to a collapsed lung and a long recovery, my range was quite reduced and I was feeling quite isolated when it came to finding support for vocal rehabilitation. I discovered Voice Lab NZ online and found an amazing support team! Amy guided me each step of the way, providing me with really practical tools I needed to get back to touring again and Kelly created a custom Vocal Yoga program that targeted exactly where I needed to rebuild my range. Even while away on tour around the world, they are always just a message or zoom call away to support me. I’m so grateful to have found my vocal support team!”

Tami Neilson

  • “As a singer, losing the ability to do my job and what I love made me feel incredibly vulnerable and scared. From the very start, Amy was professional, knowledgable and empathetic to my situation. Her passion for singers & singing really shines through in every session. The tools that she has given me are an invaluable asset to my ongoing vocal health and well-being.”

    Phoebe Hurst, Professional Singer

  • “Absolutely amazing beyond what words could express. I had severe restrictions that essentially stopped my from communicating, however due to a personalised vocal routine and regular checking and corrections, I finally (and quite literally) have my voice.”

  • “As a Voice Physiotherapist, working with the team at Vocalise has been fantastic. We work together closely to ensure our shared clients have a full, holistic picture of vocal care. I know I can trust that Amy will go the extra mile for her clients”

    Kristina Saul, Voice Physiotherapist, Voice Physiotherapy NZ

  • “I had a really great experience. I saw lots of improvement with my voice after my first session, and my second session made sure I was on the right track with my exercises. I was really happy with my treatment and the treatment plan outlined for me, and I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone else with similar vocal issues.”
