Relief From Stuttering - Laying the Groundwork to Speak with Greater Ease (Paperback)

A compact resource with a personal Foreword by speech-language pathologist Cindy Spillers, Ph.D., "Relief From Stuttering" offers direction and support to individuals working on their own or in collaboration with specialists to speak with greater ease and to those who help guide them and presents a layered view of stuttering problems to help family, friends, and acquaintances realize more fully what it can mean to have a stuttering problem and what can be involved resolving one. More than that, "Relief From Stuttering" reflects the widely expressed recognition that it is possible to experience ease by assimilating rather than resisting what we fear. Inspirational in tone, practical in application this compilation of 12 papers presented at International Stuttering Awareness Day Conferences for people with stuttering problems and professionals alike from 2000 to 2012 by Ellen-Marie Silverman, Ph.D., speech-language pathologist and Fellow of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, includes "My Personal Experience with Stuttering and Meditation," "Creating Conditions for Change," "My Stuttering is Me," "Doing the Work," "What to Expect from Mindfulness," and the deeply reflective, "Why Seek Therapy." The papers plus commentary on each written especially for this book highlight Honoring Self-Worth, Fearlessly Facing Fear, Charting a Path of Change, and Using Helpful Assessment Metrics as requisite elements of experiencing desired change. Through "Relief From Stuttering," Dr. Ellen-Marie Silverman, who has had a stuttering problem and who has been helping people with stuttering problems speak more as they wish for more than 40 years, identifies a sustainable infra-structure to support the intent and process of speaking with greater ease and doing so more consistently. She is the author of "Mindfulness & Stuttering. Using Eastern Strategies to Speak with Greater Ease."
