There isnt a onesize fits all therapy for stuttering. It's different for most of us. I took speech therapy all through school. It never helped me personally but it did get better over time with my own...

I had therapy with Carl. No results sadly. I worked with another one on the root cause though called David Samson. And that's been very very helpful...

What are your experiences guys? I was with them for over 1 and 1/2 year and I can say they helped me to get on the right direction, I find their theory pretty good and it resonates with me, however I ...

I went to the same doctor and received the same treatment approach twice. Once in my teens. Then again in my 20s. It wasn't terribly effective in my teens. In my 20s I made rapid progress and achiev...

I have done it although I don't have a stutter. (I'm in this sub for my son.) Landmark helped me greatly to improve my relationships (forgive my dad) and there was a physical energetic release as well...

true, had a 2nd consultation(w/ a different prof) recorded that too :P I sounded a bit better in this one imo....

This is true. I definitely understand you both. It didn't work for me as a child but it did, do a certain degree, as an adult. I think that all stutterers should try again as adults and keep trying u...

I couldn't name the treatment I received. And it's very possible the treatment was customized to my needs. So where you might have read 'program' as a preset treatment protocol, that's not what I mean...

interesting. I know when I did there was an option to not pay after the 2nd day if you felt it wouldn't work. I did quite a few courses because I trained to be a coach, and maybe only 2 or 3 didn't ...

you are wrong when you say that you can’t improve your speech if you are not mentally well or positive whatever you wanted to say, I have been with a different speech therapist for 4 years and during ...

I was there where you are now at similar age. Getting tired of life and hated everything a thinking that eternal rest is better. My stutter was diagnosted as severe. Many speech therapies were unsuce...
