Speech Coaching

We believe everyone deserves to communicate freely. StutterWise is a non-profit dedicated to helping people of all ages who stutter. Our mission is twofold: to provide free, effective speech coaching, and to advance scientific understanding of stuttering.

Building on the PaBaSAT study—where we developed and refined our methods—we offer personalized training tailored to each person. To keep support accessible, every program is completely free of charge.

Research sits at the heart of our work. With clients’ consent, we analyze anonymized insights to improve our techniques and contribute to a deeper understanding of stuttering.

Demand is high, so there may be a waitlist. We appreciate your patience as we expand capacity. Meanwhile, you are welcome to explore our research and contribute even if you are not seeking coaching right now.

Our speech coaching program

Our approach is grounded in years of research into how stuttering works. We help you improve fluency and speak with greater confidence through targeted, practical training.

We view stuttering as a learned behavior—not a disease or disability. That means it can be unlearned and replaced with fluent speech patterns. As a non-profit, we offer this training free of charge.

The full program is available online, so you can take part from wherever you are.

How it works

Coaching is tailored to you. We identify your specific stuttering patterns and build a personalized plan to address them.

The program typically includes:

  1. Stutter profiling: We assess your patterns, severity, and when stuttering tends to occur, so we can choose the most effective path for you.
  2. Pattern identification: Specialists work with you to pinpoint your unique patterns—an essential step before training begins.
  3. Basic training: One-on-one sessions with a speech coach focus on techniques that improve fluency. The number of sessions depends on your needs.
  4. Extended training: After basic training, you can continue with additional support to maintain and strengthen your progress.

Achieving lasting results

Lasting change takes time, effort, and dedication. With proven methods and your commitment, lasting fluency is an achievable goal.

Our results speak for themselves:

  • 92% of participants report being almost or completely stutter-free immediately after completing basic training.
  • 85% maintain fluency for at least 12 months after training.
