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.

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

AIS has taught me effective managing techniques, as well as the confidence and grace to overcome my fear of stuttering. I highly recommend AIS.

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!

I have had traditional stuttering therapy regarding stuttering techniques and stuttering strategies which helped at times but never actually dealt with the deeper challenges of stuttering. Speech therapy services with AIS has been eye opening for me because for the first time speech therapy means communication and counseling... I feel heard, I feel respected, and encouraged... I have been able to take chances, try new things, get back into things I was passionate about, really finally enjoying living my life as a person who stutters.
