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.
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!

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.

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

Multidirectional approach, not like standard speech therapy. Like the multi-pronged direction involved in speech and communication. Highly recommend.
