Stuttering Therapy and Counseling

A new stuttering therapy to improve fluency by controlling the physiological mechanism that may be causing your stuttering blocks.

William D. Parry, Esq., CCC-SLP

A licensed speech-language pathologist and trial lawyer, with 25 years experience in stuttering support and advocacy and author of Understanding & Controlling Stuttering: A Comprehensive New Approach Based on the Valsalva Hypothesis.

Is stuttering holding you back - in your career, education, employment opportunities, or social life?

Are you able to speak fluently some of the time, but find yourself blocking on words when speech is most important (e.g., introducing yourself, ordering in a restaurant, or talking on the phone or to groups or to authority figures)?

Have you tried various stuttering therapies and fluency techniques in an effort to stop stuttering, but found them to be ineffective, unnatural sounding, distracting, or too hard to maintain?

Are you reluctant to spend thousands of dollars on stuttering therapy programs or electronic fluency devices that may not really be the "stuttering cure" you were hoping for?

Are you experiencing employment discrimination because of your stuttering?

I have personally known the agony of stuttering and the frustration of employment discrimination. After many stuttering therapies failed to help me stop stuttering, I discovered a new approach that dramatically increased my fluency and enabled me to become a successful trial lawyer. Over the past 25 years, I have been sharing my ideas and providing support and advocacy for people who stutter.  To further my goal of helping those who stutter, I am now a licensed and ASHA-certified speech-language pathologist, as well as a licensed attorney.

I offer a promising new approach to reducing stuttering blocks through Valsalva Control Stuttering Therapy (which I developed and which has helped me and others), in addition to a range of other options.  I provide in-person stuttering therapy in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and over the Internet by webcam (subject to applicable law).  My approach includes both physiological and psychological aspects of Valsalva Control.  I am also available to provide practical advice and legal counseling regarding employment discrimination matters.  (Cases located outside the Philadelphia area will be handled in association with local counsel.)
