How to Treat Stuttering in Young Children

In case you were wondering or were not aware; stuttering and stammering refer to the same thing. Are you familiar with stuttering therapy or how stuttering is treated? Is it by medication? by therapy? and if therapy, what kind of therapy? I find that I get asked this “speech therapy question” a lot by parents. Many parents do not seem to know what is involved in therapy treatment for children who stutter. There are different techniques used in speech therapy for children who stutter but what is over-aching in all the different treatment approaches is that, if a child is younger or does not have the “experience” or habit of stuttering i.e. they have not been stuttering for a long time then a behaviuoral approach to remediating the stutter is applied. I personally lean towards the Lidcombe Program to treat stuttering and this is the program that I use at my speech therapy private practice.
