As a speech pathologist I have not found that speech therapy had any effect on my stuttering. I found my own pathway to fluency. I learned how to breathe for speech based on how fluent speakers talk. Once I understood how to control my Valsalva response I was able to reach consistency in my fluency. I am now basically free from stuttering after a lifetime of stuttering. I found stuttering is curable when you are able to learn how to breathe for speech.
