Specializes in Psychiatry

Support: Stammering (stuttering) is a communication disorder involving disruptions in speech. It tends to worsen with anxiety. Assessments of speech, language, and hearing are needed. Speech therapists can help with relaxation, speech rhythm control, feedback, modifying environmental triggers, role-playing, and assertiveness training. If there's an accompanying anxiety disorder, medications may help.
