Therapy works wonders but you need to find the right theatpist for you and be in the right head space. But yeah, whatever works for you...

SLP here. The skill of speech therapists doing fluency therapy varies A LOT. Consider looking at ASHA’s website to find someone who specializes in speech therapy. Most of us don’t spend that much ti...

I’m an SLP and I always tell my students that the point of therapy isn’t to eliminate your stutter but to give you tools to help you be more fluent when you want to be more fluent. Some strategies wil...

I never did therapist-led CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), but I kind of did my own version over many years, and it was very helpful. It's changing your mindset how you approach conversations, not...

I see this was deleted, but either way, I think I better understand where you're coming from. I saw you mention you're in couples therapy, and really that was the main thing I was going to suggest, so...

There are other techniques to control your stuttering I'm in the 4th session now, and i don't regret starting speech therapy...

Hey, how is it going now? Im in the same boat. My son is 6 in 2 months and has been stammering since 3.4 years. Weve tried PCI, lidcombe, and no help. Its really hard. Have you seen any improvement? X...

I'm going to make some very different recommendations to most of the people here. I do stutter, but can completely understand your frustrations with it - it's frustration we all have on this subreddi...

I have talked to him directly about this and we are in couples therapy. I do love him and I can agree that I am a lot more abrasive than I previously thought. I'm also not really sure what is going ...

This is a recommendation and some caveats about what worked for me and my son. First of all I would just reiterate that children under the age of 6 can be treated in a way in which older children and...

I'd highly recommend the Lidcombe program - My 4.5 year son stuttered badly and 4 months later he is almost completely stutter free. As a parent who went through it though I would say the main things ...

I did… I went to the local NSA chapter for a year. I found it a mixed bag of people… Adult PWS wanting to learn how to improve their fluency… Parents with questions on how to “fix” their children… Uni...

Is there anyone here went to any of the support groups?

Is there anyone here went to any of the support groups? I recently went to see a Speech therapist and she suggested me a support group where I live. It’s a support group for adults. I am planning to g...

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I didn’t find this book to be helpful at all. I enjoyed reading about stuttering and someone else’s experience. The idea that I was able to gain more insight o...

i cannot say I am fully healed, like i dont stutter at all now. I still do sometimes. But the methods there definitely helped me where i am today. There are techniques and strategies that you can try....

Hey, now that you’re 21, how about looking into psychological treatment again? Since you’re an adult now any psychologist will keep your information safe. As someone who stuttered severely during chi...

I thought normal stuttering, at least in regards to folks I know who have a stutter, happens with their family/friends, even when subjectively feeling relaxed and at ease. That's why I thought mine wa...

Thank you. I’ve had the good fortune of psychological therapy. My trauma is a distant memory as my adulthood life was very fortunate despite my mild stuttering. I like Gabor Maté as well and all attem...

I’ve had 6 speech therapists in my life. None of them provided any long term benefits because none of them understood stuttering beyond the mechanical. I’ve worked directly with the speech program at ...

True but I’ve had amazing speech therapists in my younger years who worked in a school district. They didn’t actually help my speech but atleast they put in an effort. One even personally went out of ...
