In my opinion there is no healthy way to yell/scream if you want to protect your voice from damage. "The louder your voice, the harder the vocal folds slap against each other. There is a limit to their ability to absorb this shock without causing structural damage to the vocal folds." In other words, yelling can cause permanent damage to your voice, and there is no way to repair that damage. I would consider it unethical for myself or any other vocal instructor to advise you that it is okay to scream under any circumstances.
