Speech Therapy

Dear Friends,

Mr.’X’ has attended the 6 days speech therapy course and spoken to me today morning for about 10min. He never stammered or blocked in that 10min. Pl keep in mind that he is a severe stutterer in Chennai SHG. I advice him to follow speech therapist guidelines for the next 6 months. He is also very confident of overcoming his stammering. On the behalf of TISA, I wish him all the best and let him be a role model to all the youth PWS.

What is Self Help?

Read Here

Since there is no medical cure and available therapy almost always ends in relapse and self-blame, it makes sense to develop problem solving skills on our own: you would surely learn to fix running repairs if you are going on a world tour, instead of carrying your mechanic with you. It is all the more useful since it is practiced in a group. You develop social and communication skills, instead of chasing fluency alone. TISA promotes four core techniques: Bouncing, Prolongation, Pausing and Voluntary stammering. In addition, we share and practice many more skills/ approaches: listening, Body language, team skills, leadership, self-assertion, peer counseling- above all being a member of a vibrant community, through fair give and take.
