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.

Joshua’s Friends & Family Speech
On the last day of his teen intensive program in Atlanta, Joshua gave this speech to a group of friends and family.
AIS changed my life. They helped me gain confidence with my stuttering and they helped me become a more effective communicator.

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.

I've had many types of therapy for stuttering. The AIS approach has been the most helpful, by far. Highly, highly recommended.

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!

Margaret is an amazing speech therapist—professional, kind, and truly effective. She helped me gain confidence and improve my speech in a way that felt natural and encouraging. Highly recommended!
