Stuttering therapy for children

Do you recognise this as a parent or carer?

You know all too well the challenge in your child of stuttering or faltering. Perhaps it is sometimes a struggle to tell a story or your child regularly stumbles over words, sometimes causing frustration. Or you notice your child withdrawing and becoming quieter.

Perhaps you have already tried various treatments, at speech therapy or with recognised stutter therapists. And most probably you have heard “your child will have to learn to live with this”.

But that is not what you envisage for your child. You want to go beyond temporary solutions or learning to accept stuttering.

For your child, you want uncomfortable silences to disappear.

You have a deep desire to let your child speak freely. Without hiccups or anxiety. Anytime, anywhere.

It’s time for a personalised speech revolution for your child. That is exactly what we have offered to more than 13,000 trainees over the past 45 years. It is time for the Del Ferro stuttering therapy.

Stutter-free in 3 steps

Overcoming stuttering with the Del Ferro method

The Del Ferro method is hailed as a pioneering approach for those who stutter. The method focuses on training the diaphragm muscle, regaining control over it. The result is fluent speaking in any situation. Stutter therapy participants speak without stuttering from the first day of the course.

This unique method is not only effective but also revolutionary in the way stuttering is approached, addressing both the physical and mental aspects.

With a solid foundation in scientific research and more than 13,000 stutter-free students worldwide in over 45 years, the Del Ferro Method offers a lasting solution for anyone who longs for a life without stuttering.

What will you learn during the stuttering therapy?

The stuttering therapy consists of two parts. It starts with the 5-day stutter therapy. This is followed by an aftercare programme that ensures fluent speaking becomes automatic in every situation.

What to expect?

1

Your child speaks stutter-free from the first day of the course

During the 5-day course , your child will learn the Del Ferro speaking technique, which guarantees from the very first day of the course that your child speaks with complete fluency. During the week, technique is perfected, increasing dexterity in fluent speaking.

2

Building self-confidence and saying goodbye to speaking anxiety

Your child will learn to speak with complete fluency in all speaking situations. By combining effective speaking technique and attention to the mental side of stuttering, self-confidence will grow and your child will say exactly everything they want to say.

3

Your child completely overcomes stuttering

Fluent speech will become the new reality in your child’s life. Your child will experience the power and freedom of speaking thoughts unhindered. As a result, self-confidence will grow and you will know that a stutter-free life is within reach.

What will your child learn during stuttering therapy?

Would you like to get a good impression of what your child will learn during Del Ferro stuttering therapy? Click on each of the course days:

day 1

Introduction & foundation

On this day, your child will meet the other course participants. Everyone has their own story, but they all share the same goal: overcoming stuttering. Practising together and supporting each other strengthens their mutual bond.

The most memorable moment of this day is when your child speaks for the first time without stuttering. This moment will give self-confidence a huge boost and is decisive for the rest of the therapy.

During the day, your child will learn the Del Ferro speaking technique. Your child will then start performing the exercises that are taught in the morning as well as in the evening. With the help of the workbook, your child will be guided through the process step by step. An added benefit of these exercises is that it provides relaxation and a better night’s sleep. For children who are athletic, these exercises are also ideal to improve fitness and recover faster after physical exertion.

day 2

Exercise & refinement

On this day, your child will focus on improving the skills learnt on the first day.

The learned technique is applied in different speaking situations, which helps to become more familiar with it. Each practice session is specially designed to further sharpen speaking skills.

There is also unique concentration training, which often makes concentration problems disappear and any medication can be reduced or even stopped. This training is not only important for overcoming stuttering, but also very useful for other areas of life where concentration and attention are important.

day 3

Self-esteem & positivity

On this day, the focus is on the mental aspect of stuttering and on partially phasing out the technique in preparation for life after completion of the course.

Skills such as speaking clearly and articulately are worked on. Strategies are taught to develop a stronger and more positive self-image, which is crucial to get rid of stuttering.

day 4

Integration into daily life

During this day , your child will learn to speak fluently in everyday life using the Del Ferro method.

Your child will practice everyday situations that were previously challenging, such as giving a fluent talk and speaking without any hiccups during a video recording. This day is all about applying the knowledge gained and embedding the new skills in daily routine.

day 5

Closing & outlook

The last day celebrates your child’s progress and preparation for a life without stuttering.

Your child demonstrates new speaking skills by fluently making a phone call and reading aloud without stuttering. In conclusion, your child will be given a plan to continue growing independently. It is a celebration of what they have achieved as a group and the prospect of a stutter-free future.
