I'm not convinced that there's any kind of therapy that can heal stuttering. Many of us, including myself have been to so many therapies but the results are the same, instead you're always blamed for ...

You can do more than you think

You can do more than you think I’m a woman with a moderate to severe stutter. I can’t hide it, also I don’t try. I stutter openly in every conversation that I have, and I have a lot of them. I’m gradu...
