Go to an SLP. The entire reasos stutterers often fear speaking is they think they'll stutter. It's ass backwards to say "go speak a lot" without doing a more complex program....

Frankly, it's BS to suggest that a speech therapist can't help you because they don't know what it's like. It doesn't work for everyone, but that doesn't mean it's useless. Great for you, but I'm at ...

So happy for you. As a pws, I understand the joy of being able to speak fluently. I was planning for a therapy. Though I've heard a lot of positive reviews, still skeptical as there is no one size fi...

Going in positive is better than going in negative, but It's an overly simplistic answer. Psychologists don't understand the depth and layers of stuttering so I generally wouldn't reply on them for sp...

Find a therapist who specializes in working with people who stutter. Also, get support: www.westutter.org You’re not alone!...

We've had this sort of thing mentioned in here before, but only rarely do people describe that sort of "global" impact. Perhaps it's something you should go get checked out by a professional of some ...

Well, basically, you should try speech therapy again. But probably not with the same therapist. You see, therapy is inherently variant, depending on where the client is at and where the therapist is a...

Has anyone done or know anyone that has done the MPI2 Stuttering programme??

Has anyone done or know anyone that has done the MPI2 Stuttering programme?? Im a 33 year old male from the UK and came across the MPI2 Stuttering treatment not so long ago. Currently there is only on...

Short answer, yes. Is this SLP trained and experienced in stuttering? Stuttering is not like other speech disorders (it's a communication disorder) and most SLPs get very little training on it in scho...

Currently a freshman. 19 and male. In my second semester of college, first semester was the lowest and most depressed and sad version of myself I had ever experienced. I couldn’t take it, and speech t...

I'm 19. I don't know exactly how many sessions I had. A lot, is what I can say. About the memory exercises, well, it's a kind of exercise that you have to memorize some words that you hear on an audio...

Yea this. As a speech therapist, I have seen many that just don’t understand it like one who themselves stutter or specializes in stuttering....

I've seen seven speech therapists, and they all taught me different strategies. Each of their effectiveness varied greatly. I would recommend asking for other strategies after telling her that these a...

The way my speech therapy went was we would practice breathing exercises and practice speaking fluently. I never worried about removing the things I did to help me speak more fluently. Maybe looking a...

I used to go to speech therapy for many years during my childhood and teen years and I also think it didn’t help at all. I went to a dedicated therapy against stuttering in my 20ths (Kassler Stotterth...

I also stopped going to speech therapy. I have a mild to moderate stutter so it wasn’t massively impacting my life to begin with and I just couldn’t do it any more. It wasn’t helping and I am old enou...

A few details I'm curious about here - if you don't mind. :) How old are you? How many sessions have you had? What do you mean, "memory exercises"?...

I went to a speech therapist throughout most of my childhood. It didn't cure my stutter, but it definitely helped me through techniques I learned to manage my stutter. Do you feel like it helps you at...

You could perhaps ask her what are the purposes of her telling you to do these exercises, and of course, be very honest that you feel as though this isn't providing you major improvements with reducin...
