Fluency Shaping Therapy
Fluency Shaping Therapy is a specialized treatment for individuals who stutter. It focuses on teaching new speech patterns to promote smooth and fluent speech. The therapy emphasizes controlling breathing, improving speaking rhythm, and adjusting vocal techniques to reduce stuttering. Therapists guide patients through exercises that build confidence and encourage slow, deliberate speech. The goal is to help individuals communicate more effectively and with less frustration. Unlike other approaches, which may address the emotional aspects of stuttering, Fluency Shaping Therapy primarily concentrates on changing how speech is produced.
