thoughts/experiences/results/advise for Camperdown Program (Australian based) or any other therapy programs for adults/adolescents who stutter. Hi, I'm a student speech pathologist. I'm just looking...

I have tried using one service like that before, which I think is the same thing. It's where you type and someone else speaks for you right? I just got hung up on over and over again...I think the ser...

Hello, I recently found this subreddit due to my soon to be wife telling about it and not being the most tech person i never thought to look on reddit. lol I am 34 and have stuttered all my life. I ha...

Hi, sorry it took so long to reply I haven't been around for a little while. My 12 sessions went alright. Unfortunately my Speech Language Pathologist didn't really hear me stutter much! That's just h...

Thanks, I'll take a look at that sub as well. What happened with my speech therapy was, since I live in Canada and can't afford the $100/hour private sessions, I waited to get into the public program ...

Hi!, It went really well actually. She evaluated me and asked me all kinds of questions and made me do all kinds of sounds so she could figure out how severe my problem was. Then, she used a couple ...

My stutter is so severe that I stutter on every single word and it's not uncommon for me not being able to finish a sentence. That's last thing is the hardest for me to accept. When I was younger I ha...

Confidence is the key, i think. If you stutter, but are confident, it does hardly matter. Luckily my stutter nearly vanished after i passed the tests to become master craftsman, and it's like that for...

The hypnosis part was about 15 minutes long (twice a day i think), i was awake and self-aware every time, but i couldn't move my arms or legs. Crazy shit....

thanks for the contribution man, that's awesome shit improved for you and it definitely gives me some hope. Though I wanted to ask: do you remember what happened at the hypnotherapist? The types of th...

It will get better, stay positive. Long time stutterer here (>10 years), now nearly healed.

It will get better, stay positive. Long time stutterer here (>10 years), now nearly healed. I'm a long time lurker here (with my mainaccount) and finally wanted to share my story. I'm male, in my t...

Private. I live in Australia, so she went to university here apparently. I recall it being over $100 per hour. I feel sorry for my parents having paid that much to a "therapist" who was adamant that I...

Think of stuttering as an iceberg model i.e. 10% is what you see, 90% is what you don't see. The act of stuttering is just the end result of a myriad of other things that went wrong i.e. word scanni...

So was she a private SLP? Did you get speech therapy services in school? If she had an license through ASHA (the American speech and hearing association), she was probably 'legitimate'. However, many...

> I hate that fact that speech pathologists and researchers don't understand what stuttering is Some don't have much of a grasp on it, but it really depends on the clinician. I think that some SLP...

Not really. My "therapist" was just helping me read. Little did she know that nearly all stutterers can read fluently, so I wasted five hours and a lot of my parents money improving my already fluent ...

I hate that fact that speech pathologists and researchers don't understand what stuttering is. It's like that line from Good Will Hunting "If I asked you about art, you'd probably give me the skinn...

I've had speech therapy since I was 4, up until I graduated H.S. In all fairness, I still stutter. It was never that bad, but it's not gone. I always saw it as something I had to do. I could never g...

Listen to these two: http://stuttertalk.com/?s=dellinger They hit the nail on the head as far as what therapy and how an SLP should be....

I actually spent 5 years in speech therapy, all in elementary/middle school. I credit the fact that I can function as well as I do and as faded/managed as my impediment is to the skills of my therapis...
