Interesting result after trying speech therapy. I’ve struggled with stuttering my ENTIRE life. My Mom does too and it’s just been something I’ve accepted. I’m 35F and it seems to be getting worse with...

Apologies to everyone who's seen this comment before. When I get asked, I recycle my existing posts / comments. I was fortunate to have an SLP who approached fluency differently than what I gather ...

I’m a person who stutters (but can speak as I want to now) and I’m a childrens mental health counselor. I doubt the problem is “not wanting to use the tools”. Many of the tools taught can embarrassi...
