Best of luck. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need any advice or have questions. This is a great community and everyone here wants to support each other. I always advocate for speech therapy to im...

I'm just trying to offer a different perspective. Plenty of people think it was a worthwhile comment. If you bothered to look at my comment history you'd see I consistently try to help people and stan...

I can understand, I can help you out. Let me ask around a few people who stutter in the US and get back to you...

I haven't heard of the 2 you mentioned here. But I have found a pretty good one. I had a really bad stutter and I was able to overcome it with their help. I started by watching their Youtube video...

Sure, Courtney Byrd, for example, has never had to worry about not being able to get her name out the way you or I have. But to say that that woman doesn’t understand stuttering is utter bullshit. If ...

Would you be willing to listen to completely free podcast from a highly credentialed SLP (in actual stuttering), who also is/was a heavy stutterer? There’s hard/uncomfortable work to do, but if trul...

Really want to know? Most SLPs have no training in treating stuttering, so they use interventions intended to help people w articulation (eg lisp) issues. Many even think this can make things worse ...

Working with PWS actually helped quite a bit with my own fluency by forcing me to practice what I preach more. That and increased fluency with my “therapist voice” when talking with children, it would...

Congrats! Did you already network with other SLPs that stutters?...

Heartfelt congratulations! There will be many PWS clients out there searching for an SLP that also experiences stuttering-like disfluencies. You embrace life's challenges with beautiful determination....

Sleep 100% affects fluency rate. Check out my very last comment on another post in this sub for some advice from a speech therapist and person who stutters. I understand the irony, but be weary of t...

Discord Server for teens/young adults Hey guys! I'm a teenager who stutters and I will be creating a platform for teens and young adults who stutter to connect, share experiences, and most importantly...

Don't want to discourage you OP. Just sharing my experience. As you can see from the other comments, therapy can definitely work. You should try it if you can....

I'm no expert and just going off my own experience and observations so make of it what you will Someone already said don't say "slow down" or "think about what you are saying" or anything like that. ...

Thanks, I will look into it. Yes, I only told her to slow down, once a while ago, and never again and she still remembers that....

Stop telling her to slow down. It doesn't help and if we wanted to slow down we would. It also reinforces that stuttering is not ok because if it were you wouldn't be telling her to slow down in order...

Brilliant! It sounds like you’re doing all the right things! If you like I can ask my parents if they have any tips on how to deal with speech delays/stutters and get back to you. I was too young to r...

I am a fellow stutterer and a Speech Pathologist Assistant as well. I understand your frustration and concerns as a parent, you are not alone. Services can be very costly and I applaud you for using s...

This sounds dumb but talk to yourself for 20ft man day every day consistently, maybe when you’re driving or something. And write down your stutter words, write down one a day, and repeat that word 100...
