That's great news, congratulations! I just found this subreddit today and it's amazing to see all the support everyone shows one another. I do have a few questions about your particular situation if ...

Which is ironic, because when I try to bill insurance for stuttering therapy, I get denied because "speech therapists are not approved to provide mental health services." /facepalm...

that's so it can be covered by insurance here in the US. There has to be some ICD10 code or DSM diagnosis in order to get reimbursement. It always comes back to money. ...

Thanks, I'll take a look at that sub as well. What happened with my speech therapy was, since I live in Canada and can't afford the $100/hour private sessions, I waited to get into the public program ...

It's nearly 12 am here now, writing this took longer than i though it would. >Too expensive. You are from america i guess? That's a real bummer, in germany that would be covered by insurance. &g...

Private. I live in Australia, so she went to university here apparently. I recall it being over $100 per hour. I feel sorry for my parents having paid that much to a "therapist" who was adamant that I...

Thank you for sharing! Before I read this, I did not know that stuttering could run in a family. This confirms my beliefs that stuttering can be caused by different reasons for different people. There...
