>What techniques did you learn that really helped you? I've gotten that question before. As such, I copied most of the following from a previous response. It's more of a program than any particu...

Yes, I can agree with you about anxiety and feelings. I think that stuttering, when a person has great awarness of it, which happens usually in school aged children /teens/ went beyond speaking to emo...

Is anyone using Zoom / telehealth platforms for speech therapy?

Is anyone using Zoom / telehealth platforms for speech therapy? I'm curious. Since the pandemic started, has anyone transitioned to remote sessions for their speech therapy?...

i believe that she trully think she has a perfect answer to eliminate stuttering, but what does it mean to her, living and stuttering once in a while without being trully affected ?, who are the popul...

I do believe in speech therapy. Speech therapy worked for me... Second time around. I was a severe stutterer from my earliest memory. Severe, as in, never a fluent sentence. Blocks so bad that I ran...

I am not pushing anything. I am simply stating my views. In my view the Edinburgh Masker is the best thing that ever happened to me as far as reducing my stuttering. I also highly recommend Delayed...

Respect for approaching some strangers, that is still something I cannot bring myself to do. That is worthy of celebration. Its unfortunate it didn't work out as you would have liked, but thats how th...

I had speech therapy for at least three years in elementary school, ages 6-9. I still have a stutter till this day, and I'm 20. Speech therapy is not for everyone...

Just out of curiosity but what is good therapy in contrast? I'm not sure why that's bad therapy, keeping in mind there's just no cure....

There's no guarantee of this at all, in fact what are the odds of that? I was treated as a child at an age where I was too young to even remember how old I was. I continued to have a stutter all my ...

At 7 years old I don't remember if I thought much of anything of where my parents brought me. I mean I don't think I deeply questioned it and what it means about me or anything so maybe it's just a t...

You don't 100% know that for sure if you would still have a stutter if you got speech therapy as a child. Different things work for different people. Of course it's easier to pick up on techniques at ...

If her stutter doesn't bother her, then I'm not sure speech therapy is necessary. I've been stuttering for as long as I can remember. My parents did put me in speech therapy when I was in elementary...

Is there therapist trained in stuttering disorders? If it is not bothering your child, then why the therapy? I quote a University Professor who teaches a graduate level stuttering course. *"And to...
