A review of the literature shows comparable outcomes for in-person and telepractice voice therapy, but special considerations must be made to ensure therapeutic success. We present three representative types of voice cases that illustrate implementation of voice evaluation and treatment using the telepractice modality. In all three cases, the clients' personal therapeutic goals were achieved without needing to travel to the clinic. Furthermore, asynchronous practice opportunities were found to be positive byproducts of using the telepractice modality.
