Yes and it’s brilliant. My son had a severe stutter and he was able to retrain his brain to speak fluently...

Well I still stutter when reading alone. Not stuttering when alone or when speaking to pets is not the case for every stutterer. And yes, I do believe it's possible. If you keep practing saying your...

It can! But it isn't always effective. I've had a stutter my whole life & had gone through intense speech therapy as a child - it worked pretty well for me, reducing how often I stutter (to the po...

Ah okay sorry to hear that. Sounds like it wasn't the best fit. Sometimes avoidance reduction approaches to therapy can be more successful than "strategies". Look up Open Stutter on YouTube. There are...

Definitely not too late! I just started speech therapy for the first time at age 30 after having a covert stammer all my life and at the first session my therapist said she was confident that I'd bene...

I had speech therapy as a kid and then again as a 20 year old. It truly was a game changer (for me)....

In my experience, and what I've observed here, PWS carry a lot of emotional baggage associated with our disfluency. I achieved fluency working with an SLP, but I certainly carried a lot of the stutte...

No. I had a severe stutter well into my mid 20s. Was able to achieve fluency with speech therapy....

I totally agree with that statement as someone who has been to a speech therapist and had my stutter come down to "very manageable"...it will always come back if certain other things (like self accept...

I think a speech therapist might be able to reduce the severity of the stutter by some breathing and acceptance exercises. But even a mild stutter can turn into a major one at anytime...for me, at lea...

I had a severe stutter (and a lisp and a pacing problem) as a child and speech therapy is the only reason I can talk as well as I can now. I know speech therapy doesn’t help everyone, my own dad says ...

That’s called exposure therapy or immersion therapy. Which was a big part of the therapy I went through. We had to practice being comfortable stuttering in front of strangers by going out and doing fa...

There’s this cool research that a friend shared with me about how relapse is inevitable, if acceptance of stuttering isn’t part of the therapy....

I had a severe stutter that only got better after therapy. IMO any speech therapy that does not deal with the shame, and fear associated with stuttering is not worth it. Being OK with stuttering n...

No. I knew people with extreme severe stutter who "upgraded" to a moderate/mild stutter a good speech therapy. Some of them become almost fluent and are mostly fluent. Unfortunately some of them rel...

But we cant alway be at peace, and is when we are nervouse, anxious or angry that we loose control over the way we speek, speech teraphy teach you how to controll your voice when your feeling ðoesnt l...

That doesn't sound like a long-term strategy that's a viable, in my experience. But it does prove that you are capable of fluency. Learn to speak fluently through speech therapy and you can use that ...

I did my exercises daily, more than other participants who speak now better than me. One did excercises for a month then no more. He is pretty much fluent now. Other are doing excercises daily for 3 y...

I went to an SLP and we worked on "d" and "t" a lot. I had a lot of tension with the tongue pushing hard against my teeth/mouth. We worked on a lot of light touch / light contact with the tongue, bu...

OK, I think I finally understand what you're asking. I haven't studied this area, but it sounds like you want a similar approach to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which seeks not to suppress intrusive ...
