Sorry for reposting what i just wrote but this answers your question: I am very much part of the #ok2stutter movement, born out of the social model of disability, that does not look at a person as bei...

I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. I am very much part of the #ok2stutter movement, born out of the social model of disability, that does not look at a person as being disabled but rather a...

How do you reconcile thinking clients should accept their stutter and be proud of who they are and teaching techniques to control it?...

Is your approach to working with clients who stutter focused on ways to fix/eliminate the stutter? Or, is your approach more around ways to reduce the struggles associated with stuttering and helping ...

There are completely different approaches to treating children and adults who stutter and I would really recommend giving it another try. I often find that my adult patients are a lot more motivated t...

Hi VarVB, I have seen great positive changes in my speech after thoroughly following John Isaac's material. My speech is more smooth now and the stammers/blocks have reduced considerably. But I had t...

Ikr! I heard one thing that kinda works is just to take it slow and practice saying a few words at a time to someone your at least mostly comfortable speaking with. I notice my stuttering doesn't feel...

For myself, someone with a mild case, - when I drink, my stutter almost completely disappears - I’m more fluent when I speak in an unfamiliar language - when I learn new techniques that prove effe...

Not necessarily. We might improve over time, but I don't feel like we should equate *more* with *less*. The more complex approach would be figuring out how it is that stutter tends to fade over time,...

Please tell your experience after getting John Issac material? How is your stammering now? Any changes? Anything?...

I’ve had a lot of success with diaphragmatic breathing as well!! You’re right, though, you have to constantly work at it, I haven’t been really good at that. But I would imagine it would become natura...

I started stuttering as a young kid, it was just how I learned to talk so I didn't have a lot of avoidance or anxiety with it. Addressing fluency, my teacher would help me through singing and reading ...

When I first started therapy I wanted to focus mainly on becoming fluent. What I found helped the most was working on overcoming my negative emotions associated with my stuttering...

What helped you the most in speech therapy? I’m a person who stutters and a speech-language pathology graduate student. Curious to hear about what helped you guys the most in speech therapy? Did y...

Consistency is key! I did it for many months and I see maasive...MASSIVE improvement! They will still be days when you're stutter will worsen, but over the long run, this practise will help you. Good...

Thank you so much for sharing your story. This is why I became a specialist in stuttering, to help people like you learn to become more fluent and confident. I know there are a lot of prejudices in th...

I did this program about 8 or so years ago and I feel very positively about it. Did it “cure” me? Of course not! I don’t even think that is possible. But I learned a lot of good techniques that have h...

I went through the program whenever I was 16, I'm 19 now. It is a LOT of work and the 12 days are basically hell. I did see 'some' positive differences after the end of the program, but nothing close ...

I did the program when I was 14 (I’m 18 now). When I was there, the program did help me and I did hear/feel a difference in my speech. But the improved speech went away with time. I’m sure this progra...

Oh wow I just practiced that during a meeting a work and it works!!! I appreciate you Tim from Atlanta! You’re the real OG, boss...
