 Why Speech Therapy
It's important to ask about stuttering therapy in particular because many insurance companies will pay for speech therapy that is restorative (i.e., after a stroke or brain injury), but may not pay for stuttering therapy when it's viewed as a chronic speech disability.
Stuttering therapy for teens and adults usually means changing long-standing speech behaviors, emotions, and attitudes about talking and communication in general.
Therapy length and amount needed depend on your goals, the type of therapy itself, and the severity of the stuttering handicap.
