“I’m talking more. I’m doing more things that scare me.”

Stuttering in children: Kristina talks about her daughter's stuttering therapy at AIS
Kristina talks about being the parent of a child who stutters and their experiences receiving therapy at the American Institute for Stuttering.
I have been a client of AIS for a little over two years now and it is honestly one of the best decisions I have ever made for myself. As a lifelong stutterer and someone who just did not respond to typical speech therapy, this place has opened up a whole new world for me, not just for stuttering treatment, but mental health as well. At AIS, they treat the whole person, not just the speech. I am now a part of a community of stutterers I never knew existed. AIS has been incredibly freeing for me. I will never go anywhere else.

Looked for many other places to do therapy but did not felt like those were the places because I felt they were trying to sell the magic potion to cure stuttering and make me fluent which I felt didn't exist. But after coming in contact with AIS, I was able to know how to live with stuttering and how to feel free and less anxious even while stuttering... They also gave me financial assistance to help me. I couldn't recommend enough of this place. Would give more stars if Google allowed me.

AIS offers a fresh and powerful approach to stuttering therapy. The skilled therapists have tremendous passion for what they do. They know that one-size-doesn't-fit-all in stuttering therapy and so they individualize therapy to each person. If you're thinking about making positive changes to live well with stuttering, AIS is a fantastic guide. Go for it, you won't regret it.

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

I could barely communicate when I started their class, and now I have all the tools I need to speak. What a world of a difference these people made in my life, I highly highly highly recommend this program and could not imagine my life without them. Thank you all so much <3 After I finished their class I did Toastmasters for 6 months and I would definitely recommend that as continual learning for every single person who takes the class, that also made a huge difference for me.
