Can anyone suggest speech therapist for curing stammering and speech disorder in adults.

Question

Stammering can be by muscle tightening or visible difficulty speaking which causes anxiety, fear, or loss of self-esteem. Some of the strategies you can use- 1-Speak slowly and simply. Try saying one syllable words, one at a time. Strive to have each word come out clearly before moving on to the next word. 2-Monitor your speech as you talk, looking for which words or mental states might cause stuttering to occur or worsen. 3-Don't be afraid to leave pauses or silence in your speech. Go at your own pace as you practice. 4-Practice words that you notice as problematic. 5-Gradually increase the length of words and sentences. Overtime you will work towards implementing problematic words in your speech. Consult SLP.
