Voice and singing have been a part of Charlotte Möller’s life since childhood. Over the years, this has led to a special fascination with the function of the voice and its interaction with the entire body.
Areas of Specialization
• Functional voice disorders, such as persistent hoarseness, rapid vocal fatigue, or loss of voice during vocal use without an underlying organic cause
• Organic voice disorders, such as soft vocal fold nodules, vocal fold paralysis, or voice changes following laryngeal surgery
• Mutational voice disorders, when the voice remains unusually high after puberty or shifts uncontrollably between different vocal registers
• Globus pharyngis, a persistent sensation of a lump or foreign body in the throat without an identifiable organic cause
• ILO/EILO/VCD (inducible or exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction / Vocal Cord Dysfunction), a temporary narrowing in the area of the larynx that can cause episodes of shortness of breath, a feeling of tightness in the throat, or noisy breathing, particularly during physical exercise or in situations of stress
• Contact granulomas, benign tissue changes affecting the posterior part of the vocal folds that may cause a frequent urge to clear the throat, a sensation of pressure, or pain when speaking
• Trans* voice therapy following phonosurgical procedures, providing therapeutic support after voice-elevating surgery with the aim of developing a healthy, sustainable voice while specifically addressing voice-feminizing parameters
Therapeutic Approach
As a Certified Rabine Teacher (CRT) and Certified Rabine Voice Therapist (CRVTh), Charlotte Möller works according to the Rabine Method, a functional approach to voice education and voice therapy developed by Prof. Eugen Rabine, as well as Potential Oriented Vocal Training (POVT), which evolved from this approach.
She has also undertaken further training in manual therapy techniques and osteopathic approaches. Selected elements of these methods, such as laryngeal manipulation according to Jacob Lieberman, are integrated into her therapeutic work where appropriate.
Therapeutic Philosophy
Charlotte Möller’s approach is characterized by empathy, respect, and an individual, resource-oriented perspective.
The voice is closely connected to the whole person. Feelings such as insecurity, anxiety, or tension can also manifest physically – for example, through increased tension in the larynx, a feeling of tightness in the throat, or shallower breathing – and may consequently affect vocal function.
Creating a safe and supportive environment is therefore essential. Trust, a sense of emotional safety, and the opportunity to explore the voice with curiosity and playfulness can make it easier to release physical tension, allow freer movement, and develop efficient vocal function.
Vocal development takes time, trust, and a safe space. Creating and maintaining this space, while supporting each individual at their own pace, is a central part of Charlotte Möller’s therapeutic approach.
