What we treat

Stuttering

A child who stutters repeats sounds, stretches them, or gets stuck. Many young children pass through a stage of this. Some do not.

Do not tell a child to slow down

It rarely helps and it adds pressure. We show you what to say instead.

We change the room, not only the child

How fast the family speaks, and how long a child gets to answer, both change fluency.

Early help is easier

Therapy for a young child who stutters is usually shorter than therapy for an older one.

This page gives general information only. It is not a diagnosis. For your own child, see a registered speech-language therapist or a doctor.
