או נכון יותר – מה זאת בעיית שטף הדיבור?
(Stammer) וחזרה על הברות ומילים (הגמגום), דיבור מהיר וחטוף (clutter) החלפת מילים וכדומה. מכיוון שהתקשורת הבין-אישית הינה חלק מהותי ויסודי מחייו וחוויותיו של האדם, הרי שלפגיעה ביכולת זו יש פוטנציאל לגרום לקשיים חברתיים ופסיכולוגיים וללחצים ומתחים קשים אצל האדם המגמגם.
מה זה - עיצוב שטף הדיבור?
שיטת הטיפול בגמגום של מכון ד''ר פלואנסי מבוססת על הגישה הטיפולית הידועה ובעלת השם של פרופסור רונלד וובסטר מווירג'יניה, ארה''ב, וד''ר רוברט קרול מטורונטו, קנדה - אשר הביא את השיטה לארץ ומלווה את המכון לאורך השנים.

The Importance of Fluency
Speech is a natural function. We have never paid attention to this gift of using language and expression, but people who suffer from stuttering, find themselves excluded from society. Not only do they constantly worry about exhibiting difficulty when speaking, but they also suffer from psychological symptoms like anxiety. The main reason a PWS has such negative feelings towards his/her speech is because of the feeling of failure and the inability to say something that he/she wants to say. Something so simple to say (ex: your name) requires no thought to a person who does not stutter. However, for a PWS, it’s like climbing Everest to say a complete sentence in a row without stuttering, blushing, repeating a word or sounds, rubbing your throat, swelling from stress, etc. It is an indescribable suffering that causes and leads to unjustified mental damage. People who suffer from stuttering will do anything to overcome the embarrassing phenomenon. This phenomenon causes them to exclude themselves from job interviews and remove themselves from social interactions, especially with the opposite sex. Stutterers have feelings of inferiority and worthlessness, which is extremely heartbreaking.
To Speak and Express- The Most Natural Thing in the World!
The most famous person in the world who suffered from a stutter is George VI who abdicated the throne (by marrying Wallis Simpson). He was treated by a communication therapist named Lionel Logue for years, and the movie The King's Speech expresses the success of the treatment. The movie is based on a real event, when on the brink of World War II, England needed a real leader so George VI made a speech on the radio (he did not stutter in the speech) and succeeded in causing the union of hearts. Imagine a king who stutters. Even the highest title cannot prevent a king who stutters from feeling anxious. Without the support of his therapists, his family, and Churchill, George VI would not have dared to speak, and certainly not on the radio. This indicates the helplessness and support that people who stutter need to gain confidence and speak fluently. Dysfluent speech causes a person to avoid expressing himself, bury his ideas, avoid connections, and/or share an opinion to the point of "defamation" of real identity.
Dr. Fluency's method understands the mind of the stutterer!
The principle inherent in Dr. Fluency's method - to start over basically turns to the tormented soul of the person who stutters and tells her - forget everything, here is a new opportunity and you have to start over.
It is impossible to uproot from the soul of the person who stutters all the difficult feelings and anxiety that accompany his speech failures, therefore, what the method tries to do is not to uproot you, but to "bypass" them by saying that the person does not speak as he has spoken so far, they correct him, but rather he begins to learn to speak and to breathe and pronounce words in a method he is not familiar with, which slowly opens him up to a new opportunity just for speaking and learning, but also prevents him from encountering the feelings that have prevented him until now from learning to overcome his stuttering. Dr. Fluency's method produces speech fluency and reshapes speech for people who suffer from stuttering and its success rates testify to the wisdom of the method and its ability to make patients forget about past speech failures.

So how do you overcome stuttering?
rehabilitation process for the speech system which will teach us again how to control the system and how not to let stuttering dictate the way we produce speech, what I say and our life in general. You can hear more about the subject in the fascinating lecture we give as part of the compatibility test.
