At the American Institute for Stuttering (AIS) clients discover a place where they know they are understood and supported — a place where they can free their voice.
“I’m talking more. I’m doing more things that scare me.”
People who stutter share the challenges they face due to stuttering, and how therapy at AIS has helped.

What parents have to say about stuttering therapy at AIS.
"I've learned not to take anything personally"
Derek Mitchell joined Carl Herder at the AIS Atlanta office for an interview about his growth as a person who stutters, a “year of fear,” writing a book, and getting back into the workforce.

Working with AIS was a life-changing experience for me that I would recommend to anyone that feels held back by having a stutter. With their support, I was able to move past the constant fear of stuttering, and find confidence in what I have to say. Thank you to Chaya and the entire AIS team!

AIS changed my life. They helped me gain confidence with my stuttering and they helped me become a more effective communicator.

After trying traditional speech therapy, we took our son to AIS in Atlanta. Margaret's understanding of all aspects of stuttering, and her ability to connect with our son, has been life-changing for our entire family. The teletherapy option has been a game-changer for us, allowing us to easily have weekly or bi-weekly sessions. If you are looking for stuttering help, skip the other speech programs. This is the help you are looking for!

We had my son evaluated here 11 years ago when he was 3. The evaluation was thorough and the practitioners were gentle, caring, and understanding. They gave us a clear understanding of his case, and equipped us with the knowledge to find appropriate therapy near our home.

AIS has helped me overcome my stuttering with a truly holistic approach to treatment and to communicate effectively with anyone I want to, and I have since had the confidence and ability to join the professional workforce and start a family.
