| fluency strategies speech therapy: Stutter Speech Therapy Techniques A N Okonoboh, Dave McAllen, 2020-05-28 Is it possible to stop stuttering within 10 days? What is the topmost dream of your life? As a stutterer, you don't want me or anyone else to sympathize when you talk.In our book STUTTER SPEECH THERAPY TECHNIQUES, we have you in mind. We know that how to stop stuttering is a question that cools the stuttering communities around the world. In fact, we realize that in stammering groups, sufferers are told not to bother anymore about recovery, that such effort is more devastating than the speech impediment itself. Well, our introduction to this workbook has well inspiring stories to help allay your fears. Now we will give you a gist of the features of STUTTER SPEECH THERAPY TECHNIQUES that makes it works so fast for stuttering recovery.First, this book is based on years-long study of real stammer overcomers. So, the contents is not intellectual laboratory theories. That is why it works for real people.The central key is CONSCIOUSNESS which runs as a thread through the chapters. Around this, we build other elements that are worthy of recognition in their positive or negative roles in our speeches. E.g Breath Control, breathing from the chest or from the lungs, the art of speaking, dealing with common obstacles, how to use your speech schemes, etc.In the Art of Speaking section, we addresse all issues of speech-language pathology, SLP, cognitive behavioral therapy, anxiety relief, stammer self cure, as well as the question of who will help me find my voice. The same section continues to replicated it's effectiveness in the challenge for the teaching of talking, therapy for kids, even for serious cases such as with those who think that their situation is beyond stammering. And we raised a red signal on how in delivering their parental care, parents or guardians need to be observant for any evidence of early childhood stammering.Our practicals are very easy to walk through. We developed these strategies and activities to promote your child's language development. They are step by step social skills to help toddlers and adults learn to do expert speech. This will make their expressions well-spoken and clear. So, at home, parents guardians and therapists should see this book as a valuable guide to speech.The book also deals with regression, semantic noise, slurring, muffling, and what we call brake failure. You will find that it is a complete program for getting skills to articulate better and making good of speaking. That is why many users call it, The Speech Teacher's Handbook.Finally, we dedicate a full section to the parents. At the conclusion of that section, we appeal to all parents with children throughout the globe to stop making the mistake of leaving the matter of stammer in their child to chance. It should not be hoped that he will give it up as he grows. True, stammer is short-lived in most children even those with the gene. Still, knowing which child will carry it further than the early stage, is as difficult as trying to identify a cock among unhatched eggs. |

| fluency strategies speech therapy: Self-therapy for the Stutterer Malcolm Fraser, 2002 Malcolm Fraser knew from personal experience what the person who stutters is up against. His introduction to stuttering corrective procedures first came at the age of fifteen under the direction of Frederick Martin, M.D., who at that time was Superintendent of Speech Correction for the New York City schools. A few years later, he worked with J. Stanley Smith, L.L.D., a stutterer and philanthropist, who, for altruistic reasons, founded the Kingsley Clubs in Philadelphia and New York that were named after the English author, Charles Kingsley, who also stuttered. The Kingsley Clubs were small groups of adult stutterers who met one night a week to try out treatment ideas then in effect. In fact, they were actually practicing group therapy as they talked about their experiences and exchanged ideas. This exchange gave each of the members a better understanding of the problem. The founder often led the discussions at both clubs. In 1928 Malcolm Fraser joined his older brother Carlyle who founded the NAPA-Genuine Parts Company that year in Atlanta, Georgia. He became an important leader in the company and was particularly outstanding in training others for leadership roles. In 1947, with a successful career under way, he founded the Stuttering Foundation of America. In subsequent years, he added generously to the endowment so that at the present time, endowment income covers over fifty percent of the operating budget. In 1984, Malcolm Fraser received the fourth annual National Council on Communicative Disorders' Distinguished Service Award. The NCCD, a council of 32 national organizations, recognized the Foundation's efforts in adding to stutterers', parents', clinicians', and the public's awareness and ability to deal constructively with stuttering.

Gabbard, 2014-05-05 The definitive treatment textbook in psychiatry, this fifth edition of Gabbard's Treatments of Psychiatric Disorders has been thoroughly restructured to reflect the new DSM-5® categories, preserving its value as a state-of-the-art resource and increasing its utility in the field. The editors have produced a volume that is both comprehensive and concise, meeting the needs of clinicians who prefer a single, user-friendly volume. In the service of brevity, the book focuses on treatment over diagnostic considerations, and addresses both empirically-validated treatments and accumulated clinical wisdom where research is lacking. Noteworthy features include the following: Content is organized according to DSM-5® categories to make for rapid retrieval of relevant treatment information for the busy clinician. Outcome studies and expert opinion are presented in an accessible way to help the clinician know what treatment to use for which disorder, and how to tailor the treatment to the patient. Content is restricted to the major psychiatric conditions seen in clinical practice while leaving out less common conditions and those that have limited outcome research related to the disorder, resulting in a more streamlined and affordable text. Chapters are meticulously referenced and include dozens of tables, figures, and other illustrative features that enhance comprehension and recall. An authoritative resource for psychiatrists, psychologists, and psychiatric nurses, and an outstanding reference for students in the mental health professions, Gabbard's Treatments of Psychiatric Disorders, Fifth Edition, will prove indispensable to clinicians seeking to provide excellent care while transitioning to a DSM-5® world. |
| fluency strategies speech therapy: More Than Fluency: the Social, Emotional, and Cognitive Dimensions of Stuttering Barbara J. Amster, Evelyn R. Klein, 2018-04-27 More Than Fluency: The Social, Emotional, and Cognitive Dimensions of Stutteringprovides a thoughtful and contemporary framework for speech-language pathologists and others working with people who stutter. The text focuses on the social, emotional, and cognitive realms of stuttering and offers new insights and applications based on research in the field. It guides the reader through theoretical discussions about the social experiences, emotional complications, and cognitive interpretations that often influence the person who stutters. The text also offers practical strategies for intervention from contributing authors who are prominent theorists, researchers, and practitioners in the field of fluency and stuttering. In line with the current multifactorial view of stuttering, More Than Fluency emphasizes the social, emotional, and cognitive aspects of stuttering, drawing important connections between them. The authors present a variety of therapeutic interventions and techniques along with practical guidelines that have been designed to alleviate distress in those who stutter. Although these interventions differ in approach, each offers their own roadmap to support and empower people who stutter. The idea for this book grew out of the insights gained from listening to both clients and graduate students. Clients wanted to talk about their life experiences as a person who stutters. Graduate students often described their worry and uncertainty when dealing with the emotional and social issues of their clients who stutter. Similarly, many practicing speech-language pathologists also have concerns about treating people who stutter, especially regarding the social, emotional, and cognitive aspects of the disorder, areas not typically taught in traditional coursework. More Than Fluency was developed for practicing speech-language pathologists and other professionals who evaluate and treat people who stutter. It is also intended to be an academic textbook used in graduate courses on fluency and stuttering. This text provides a collection of well-thought-out programs and approaches that help treat the whole person, not just his or her stuttering. The authors believe that this is best practice because successfully treating a person who stutters encompasses treating more than fluency. |

| fluency strategies speech therapy: Practical Intervention for Early Childhood Stammering Elaine Kelman, Alison Nicholas, 2017-07-05 Therapy for young children who stammer is now high priority, with growing research evidence supporting early intervention. This manual from the Michael Palin Centre for stammering Children (MPC) is a detailed, step-by-step guide intended to support general and specialist speech and language therapists in developing their confidence and skills in working with this age group. This manual is based on a strong theoretical framework which explains the factors contributing to the onset and development of stammering and describes recent research findings regarding the nature of stammering in this age group. It provides a comprehensive guide to the assessment process and helps to identify which children are likely to recover naturally and which are at risk of developing a persistent stammering problem. The therapy approach has been successfully tried and tested at the Michael Palin Centre, and the manual provides detailed descriptions of the therapy process.It also includes a supporting CD-Rom and photocopiable resources such as assessment and therapy forms and parents' handouts. The MPC approach is a combination of indirect therapy methods. The indirect therapy component is aimed at helping parents through the use of video feedback, to identify interaction strategies that support their child's fluency and enhance it in the home environment. In addition the approach addresses other concerns, for example, in relation to confidence building, dealing with sensitive children, and establishing clear structures and boundaries to enhance family relationships. For children at increased risk of persistence, this manual incorporates a direct therapy programme which involves teaching the child strategies for developing fluency. This manual disseminates the MPC's specialist therapy knowledge and research findings, and is an invaluable guide for all speech and language therapists and students working with stammering. |

| fluency strategies speech therapy: Stuttering and Cluttering David Ward, 2008-06-03 Stuttering and Cluttering provides a comprehensive overview of both theoretical and treatment aspects of disorders of fluency: stuttering (also known as stammering) and the lesser-known cluttering. The book demonstrates how treatment strategies relate to the various theories as to why stuttering and cluttering arise, and how they develop. Uniquely, it outlines the major approaches to treatment alongside alternative methods, including drug treatment and recent auditory feedback procedures. Part one looks at different perspectives on causation and development, emphasizing that in many cases these apparently different approaches are inextricably intertwined. Part two covers the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation of stuttering and cluttering. In addition to chapters on established approaches, there are sections on alternative therapies, including drug therapy, and auditory feedback, together with a chapter on counselling. Reference is made to a number of established treatment programs, but the focus is on the more detailed description of specific landmark approaches. These provide a framework from which the reader may not only understand others’ treatment procedures, but also a perspective from which they can develop their own. Offering a clear, accessible and comprehensive account of both the theoretical underpinning of stammering therapy and its practical implications, the book will be of interest to speech language therapy students, as well as qualified therapists, psychologists, and to those who stutter and clutter. |

| fluency strategies speech therapy: Stuttering Therapy , 1983 This volume contains six papers presented by speech therapists at a conference dealing with principles and procedures that are crucial to transfer and maintenance of the modification of stuttering and the production of increased fluency. E. G. Conture, in The General Problem of Change, addresses some of the general issues which affect the transfer of speech improvement skills learned during speech therapy to speech incidents outside of the therapeutic environment. In Working with Children in the School Environment, D. E. Williams considers ways to accomplish--and some of the problems associated with--transfer and maintenance in stuttering therapy for elementary school aged children. The third paper, Behavioral Transfer and Maintenance Programs for Adolescent and Adult Stutterers by E. Boberg, discusses the rationale and strategies used in transfer and maintenance programs for adults and adolescents. An Alternative to Automatic Fluency, by W. H. Perkins considers the question of automaticity of fluent speech and whether it can be achieved and maintained through speech therapy. In Body Concept, Self Concept and Balance, E. Versteegh-Vermeij encourages the addded dimension of body awareness, individual needs and self-concept development in speech therapy programs. J. G. Sheehan, Relapse and Recovery from Stuttering, identifies sources and causes of relapse in stuttering and ways in which to make these factors work in favor of the stutterer. A final commentary paper by H. H. Gregory, highlights topics discussed at the conference, including: attitude change; acceptance; therapy intervention; and maintenance. (CB) |

| fluency strategies speech therapy: Mindfulness & Stuttering Ellen-Marie Silverman, 2012 Mindfulness & Stuttering provides information to help the reader decide whether or not mindfulness may be a congenial strategy to help resolve a stuttering problem. Recent research verifies that mindfulness, a means to greater self-awareness and well-being practiced for more than 2,500 years, facilitates desired personal change. From reducing stress to lessening negative self-talk and by improving the ability to learn new skills, practicing mindfulness leads to living with greater ease. Ellen-Marie Silverman, Ph.D., a speech pathologist for more than 40 years and a Fellow of the American Speech-Hearing-Language Association, has been practicing mindfulness for more than 16 years and has used the practice with her own stuttering problem to speak and communicate with greater ease. In Mindfulness & Stuttering, she addresses questions and concerns people may have about the practice of mindfulness and its application to stuttering problems and describes the use of six mindfulness techniques --- shamatha-vipassana, working with shenpa, maitri, lojong, using gatha's, and tonglen --- as secular practices. She shows how mindfulness can help address two concerns people with a covert or overt stuttering problem may have, Fear of Stuttering and Struggling to Speak, and offers suggestions for constructively managing impatience, boredom, and relapse, obstacles that can arise when learning to speak with greater ease. Dr. Silverman is the author of Relief From Stuttering. Laying the Groundwork to Speak with Greater Ease. |
| fluency strategies speech therapy: No Miracle Cures Thomas David Kehoe, 2006 Stuttering is caused by at least five factors: genetics, two neurological abnormalities, responses to stress, and speech-related fears and anxieties. But most stuttering therapy programs address only one issue, such as breathing a certain way, or not hiding your stuttering. Each might help you in some situations, but you still stutter in other situations. No Miracle Cures instead guides you through treatments for all five factors that contribute to stuttering. You'll find the best treatments for children, teenagers, adults who stutter mildly, and adults who stutter severely. Stuttering may seem like one big problem to you. No Miracle Cures breaks down stuttering into many small problems'and shows you how to solve each one. |
