"Speech Therapy for a stammer"

About: Eddercliffe Centre Locala Community Partnerships CIC / Speech & language therapy

(as the patient),

If you have a stammer, then I would definitely recommend having some Speech Therapy appointments, like I have been doing for the past 21 months, at the Eddercliffe Centre, where the staff are friendly and relaxed.

I'm in my 40s and Speech Therapy has changed my way of thinking, regarding the negative thoughts that I had towards my covert stammer.

Recording my own voice on a Dictaphone, has also given me more confidence and desensitised me, to what my voice sounds like.

Attending a small monthly group for adults who stammer, which is called the G. A. S. Group, has also helped me to to brake down barriers and speak in front of a small group of people, who also have a stammer.
