I don't quite know tbh, but the therapeutic idea is to combine modification with fluency shaping. Like I said, I will share my experiences later....

I'm a PhD student and as part of my TA I teach a lab once a week and occasionally lecture when the prof can't be there. I stutter openly when I teach. I make no attempt to hide it. I do use some a typ...

Hello! I might not be exactly what you were looking for, but I could try and offer advice. First it would be to stick with it! I’ve been a TA for 3 semesters now, the last class I taught being a lectu...

I, a moderate / severe stutterer, had the same thing. I couldn't even watch "The King's Speech". I was in denial that stuttering is a problem for me. Admitting it to myself was tremendous painfull. I...

I liked it a lot, I also have a stutter that has improved in the last 6 months from speech therapy and counseling. Stuttering is hardship that nobody would understand unless they had to endure it. It ...

That's true. In fact I've had different results with that, I mostly do it sometimes because my interlocutor (usually my father) nags me about it. But it is indeed an unproved technique....

I went to the stuttering clinic in Roanoke, Virginia. It made me fluent for a couple months but I stopped practicing everyday and a year later I was stuttering again. I did learn a lot about stutterin...

Aside from more fluent speaking I learned to be more open about my stutter from the clinic. Before I would do anything to hide it. From the clinic I gained an appreciation for being more open about it...

Thank you for your response! That's awesome that it worked so well for you. I asked another poster a similar thing, but besides more fluent speech, how else has your life been affected or changed by t...

Thank you for the response! I'm actually going to show my class a portion of the video just to show how the results turned out! I'm glad to hear that the clinic made such an impact on you. If you don'...

I did this two years ago, it was fantastic. My class had two guys in their mid 20's (I was one of them) and about four high school aged participants. The methods taught in the class were very rigorous...

I've participated in a very condensed version of this "intensive therapy" at my University, if that counts. It was for a grad student's research project. We spent about 6-8 hours over the course of tw...

Good points, I think 1000 of the original DVDs were posted out worldwide 2011 and then the videos were transferred across to the website in 2012. Grant has always been careful not to make any non-...

definitely very interesting, I'm glad that there are people out there trying to make our lives easier. Unfortunately this subreddit is miniscule and you won't be able to get much from us here. One qu...

Hey /r/stutter, here's Scenari-Aid - a tool my co-worker Grant Meredith has been working on for awhile.. It's a video scenario simulator tool that allows people with speech disorders to practice da...

I hated this to till I started going to therapy. My stuttering has lowered drastically and situations like these no longer give me anxiety attacks. What works for me is to advertise the first day of S...

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...

All of the advice below is great advice. Now I try to tell people when I first meet them that I have a stutter. Also singing does help, I performed in an a cappella group my last three years in colleg...

Something that seemed to help me was singing, i sang in my high schools chorus for all 4 years and never stuttered during singing. Exercising my brain and speaking skills that way kind of improved my ...

I don't know about the speaking slowly thing, I was lucky and got speech therapy at a really young age. But 23 now (have stuttered my entire life), I speak really fast. Maybe that's why. ...
