Specializes in Pediatrics - Developmental and Behavioral

Be patient & keep : your home environment calm. Currently, Speech/Language Therapists for adults who stutter/stammer address learning to slow down speech, regulate breathing & gradually go from single-syllable responses to longer words & more complex sentences. SLT's & psychologists also address the anxiety a person who stammers feels when speaking. Long-term efficacy of electronic devices has not been proven

A Speech Therapist: Can provide exercises. Consider this, a famous musician and singer in Australia reports that her stammering goes away when she sings or when she speaks with the voice of an imaginary character she thought up.
