Fluency Therapy: Regaining Control and Speaking with Confidence

Fluency therapy empowers individuals struggling with stuttering or cluttering to achieve smoother and more effortless speech. It addresses challenges like hesitations, repetitions, or rapid speech rate, ultimately enhancing communication confidence.

Who Can Benefit from Fluency Therapy?

Fluency therapy is beneficial for individuals experiencing disfluencies (interruptions in the flow of speech) such as:

Stuttering: Characterized by involuntary repetitions of sounds, syllables, or words, or by prolongations of sounds.
Cluttering: Involves rapid speech rate with unclear articulation, making speech difficult to understand.
Understanding Disfluencies

Disfluencies are a natural part of speech, especially in young children as they develop their language skills. However, persistent or severe disfluencies can impact communication and social interaction. Fluency therapy helps individuals manage these disfluencies and achieve smoother speech production.

Goals of Fluency Therapy

Fluency therapy focuses on several key goals:

Reduce Disfluencies: Therapy helps individuals manage stuttering or cluttering episodes, promoting smoother speech flow.
Increase Self-Awareness: Fluency therapy develops self-awareness of disfluencies, empowering individuals to identify triggers and utilize strategies to manage them.
Boost Communication Confidence: The program fosters confidence in speaking situations, allowing individuals to express themselves effectively without fear of disfluencies.
Develop Coping Mechanisms: Therapists equip individuals with tools and strategies to manage anxiety or frustration associated with disfluencies.
Individualized Therapy is Key

Fluency therapy is most effective when tailored to the specific needs and challenges of each individual. Our experienced Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) at Navjeevan will conduct a comprehensive evaluation to understand your unique situation and develop a personalized therapy plan.
