About Your Coach

Andy is a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist specializing in speaking/singing voice, communication clarity, and cognitive-linguistic performance. He has lived in Massachusetts, California, Oregon, New York, Maine, and Tennessee, developing a nuanced ear for the subtleties of American accents. His extensive travel (including time spent in Mexico, Guatemala, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania, India, Nepal, Thailand, Australia, and New Zealand) has further deepened his appreciation for the diversity of global communication styles.

Andy approaches accent work with a clear philosophy: everyone has an accent. His goal is not to erase it, but to support more effective, confident communication in English-speaking environments while respecting each individual’s identity.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No, the goal is clarity, not identity removal

  • I offer a 12-session communication clarity program. This is typically accomplished in 6-12 weeks depending on number of sessions per week.

  • I offer both in-person (East Nashville) and Online options.

  • Accent modification is not covered by insurance because it is not a medical service—it’s a professional communication service.

    My work focuses on helping clients communicate more clearly and confidently in high-stakes environments. Because of this, services are provided on a private-pay basis, allowing for:

    • Highly individualized coaching

    • Flexible scheduling, including intensive formats

    • A results-oriented, time-efficient process

    This model is similar to executive coaching or specialized language training, where the focus is on measurable performance outcomes rather than medical treatment.

  • I offer accent coaching as a structured program rather than pay-as-you-go sessions. Most clients complete a 12-session program, which provides enough time to build awareness, practice new speech patterns, and carry those skills into real-world communication.

    Programs are tailored to individual goals and may be completed in a standard weekly format or a more intensive schedule, depending on your needs.

    Programs are offered at a fixed rate, discussed during consultation.
