I would suggest that to improve one's singing one sing simple phrases alternating between falsetto and head voice (or whatever you want to call them!). If you find that you can't do it, then shorten the phrase, maybe to a single note. Surely there is a single note for which you have a choice between mechanisms. Sing the single note simply and easily, without ambition. As the alternation becomes easier, start to increase the length of the phrase one note at a time. By doing thie experimentation I suspect that you will improve your use of both mechanisms as you reduce the compulsiveness of their use.
Good luck, John Link
