“Becoming Unhinged”

A Queer Autoethnography in Gender Affirming Voicework

Resumen

This queer autoethnography seeks to analyze and understand my experience of participating in a gender affirming voicework (GAV) research group over the course of an academic year as a music therapy student. Through voicework and relationship with group members, I experienced epiphanies regarding gender, allyship, and music therapy practice which transformed my experience from a desire to help a community I perceived myself as separate from to identifying as a member of the community.
