Well said, although I've found a 2 week intensive therapy program (AIS in NYC) really helped me break through initial barriers I'm not sure I could have broken through alone. I was such a covert stutt...

When I was a young teenager (13-15), I just kind of assumed (and hoped, I guess) that eventually I would grow out of it and it would just go away. I hit my early 20s and that hadn't happened, so I ju...

I just filled one out. In a nutshell, I practice meditation, yoga, and have done speech therapy. I no longer use strategies i've learned from speech therapy but would consider meditation integral i...

I once saw a speech therapist who asked me random questions which had nothing do with speech. When I asked her why she was doing this, she said it was to help me practice talking. I stopped seeing her...

Yep, I feel you....Did you ever see a speech therapist? They're there to help you, just as much with the psychological process as with the actual 'practical' stuff. ...

A lot. In school for a long time (which wasn't much help) and then I went to an outside place in late middle school (which was much better). I didn't mean to come off like speech therapy is completely...

Very common. There are even names for the things you mention: world substitution and time pressure. Most stutterers can speak completely fluent when alone or to animals. For this reason I see stutteri...

It's fluency shaping which has a good sell but for most people it doesn't last after the 3 weeks because it doesn't address the real issues associated with stuttering. It does help some people, but mo...

It was 5 days a week from like 8-3:30 + homework. It was speech retraining through a university - a program specifically for people who stutter....

If you don't mind me asking, what kind of therapy did you do? I did speech therapy when I was younger and it didn't really help me....

If you can barely speak then intensive speech therapy needs to be your first priority. I was in your shoes until I was 25 and after 3 weeks of intensive therapy my stutter is now mild when it was seve...

Well it was all my therapist's suggestion xD i changed my therapist 3 times and i'm improving alot more with my current one...

Thank you for your advice. I'm taking some herbal medicines for depression. I've tried speech therapy before. They taught me a method to overcome blocks. The problem is that this method makes my spee...

Stuttering treatmants

Stuttering treatmants Well, as a SLP clinician I have one question that bothers me a lot... and I just wanna ask some PWS that directly but I didn't find that appropriate during therapy sessions. My t...

Yeah i think all involved parts stutter in the program, but it really doesent matter. There is well, a lot of techniques. I think most important part is how we train them. Lots of "real world" scenari...

Hi! My speech therapy took a very long time, a total of about 10 years and in total about 10 therapists (most were in the last couple of years though, therapist came more and more popular with people...

Thanks so much for the input! I couldn't quite understand what the McGuire course was when I looked it up (briefly). I see that individuals with a stutter lead the course, but what specific techniques...

Went to my first McGuire course a year ago (i think?). Very good but the effect "wears off" after some time and im going to my second soon. Hippotherapy seems weird as fuck. Im open to contact on sk...

Speech therapy student here, and if you're willing, I'd really appreciate your input!

Speech therapy student here, and if you're willing, I'd really appreciate your input! Hi r/stutter! As I said, I'm a speech therapy student. I have a high interest in stutter/stammer/fluency therapy a...

Hehe, exactly the same here. Almost perfect at therapy, and terrible outside. Make the therapist aware of that. Maybe it helps if you train your speech skills in front of a mirror at home....
