No problem! My speech therapist said it's good to know exactly how you're making sounds. I'm currently trying this, sometimes it works perfectly and a lot of the time it's bumpy. I really hope it can ...

Thank you! That sounds like a solid methodology. I went to speech therapy too, but for some odd reason, I rarely stuttered with them *facepalm*. They kinda discharged me early because of that, I think...

I'll second reading aloud to yourself as a valuable exercise. My therapist had me do that for an hour every day, but also told me to record it and listen to it later. This allowed me to get used to ...

You're given a lot of tasks, tips, techniques but the progress - they leave it to yourself. When I said that I hadn't have any improvement (after 10 days of my daily exercises), they said that I had t...

Of course I paid. Her course is nice in case of some theory, but the main thing that surprises me all the time - her guarantees that you'll forget about stuttering in 3 days. No way....

Thank you for the idea! Can I ask how your therapist approached you with the idea and/or how did you feel about the experience. Feel free to share in a personal message. If not, I truly appreciate you...

No. In fact it made me more irradiated with my stutter. I'm only 15 and I've had 6(???) speech therapists. My parents finally let me quit last September. I've made more progress by myself than with th...

Well, the thing with therapy, if you go through for more than 1 year, the chance of it working again is rather low. Not impossible, and it’s worth trying I agree. But I was in speech therapy from 2nd ...

It's a shame that she thinks that is acceptable. I had very poor experiences until I met my current Speech Pathologist two years ago. She actually listens to me, even if I am blocking. She told me "w...
