With a focus on vocal technique, consistency, and mindset, Courtney empowers her clients to embrace their full vocal potential.
Courtney Herring is a passionate and experienced Vocal Coach who has been helping singers and speakers find their unique voice for over 20 years.
As a Level One Singing Athlete Practitioner, Courtney is dedicated to integrating cutting-edge, science-backed techniques into her practice. This brain-based voice training certification reflects her commitment to helping vocalists achieve peak performance through targeted training and functional application.
Having spent 30 years immersed in the world of theatre and performance, Courtney understands the fears and challenges individuals face when singing or speaking in public. Her warm personality and ability to create a safe and nurturing space allow her clients to experiment, grow, and gain both vocal prowess and personal confidence.

Your Voice matters. You are in control of it. I can teach you to know your own voice, inside and out, so that when you’re sick, tired, overwhelmed, excited, scared, or lost in a crowd--it will be there for you. You’ll know how to speak up. You’ll know how to speak softly in a way that everyone will listen.
You don’t have to hide.
"Courtney was a true angel and savior for me! I speak publicly six days a week for work and have been struggling with voice fatigue and strain for years. With her loving help, professionalism, and immense knowledge, she gave me a ton of tips and taught me exercises to keep my voice strong and safe. It has been a game changer for my business and I am SO grateful!
Courtney is an absolute joy to work with and I can't recommend her and her gifts enough!!”
