Speech Disorders
"With the fitting of the the SpeechEasy device it has finally made me feel free. Free from embarrassment, saying one thing then really meaning another. I struggled with stuttering for so many years. Growing up was harder, and letting people know who you are was a challenge. People thought I was "shy" or "not social" but in fact I'm the complete opposite. I couldn't keep the jobs I wanted and it severely impacted the way I lived each day. The SpeechEasy brought me hope and confidence. A door opened for me when all the others shut. It makes life worth living again."

Speech Disorders Disrupt Communication
Speech disorders disrupt communication and carry the potential to isolate individuals from their social and educational surroundings. It is essential to find appropriate and timely intervention.Speech Pathology Experts Work to Improve Fluency
Speech pathology experts, such as ASHA certified Speech Language Pathologists (SLPs), work closely with SpeechEasy to improve fluency. More and more speech pathologists are finding SpeechEasy fluency devices to be an appropriate and valuable tool for improving fluency. When used in conjunction with therapy, speech pathologists have reported that progress is enhanced and made less stressful for their patients.Speech pathologists assist children who have communication disorders in various ways. For this reason, we work closely with speech pathologists to determine who is a proper candidate for a fluency-device, as well as what therapies and techniques will enhance the device's success. To ensure ideal outcomes, the fitting of the device itself is handled only by state-registered and ASHA-certified SLPs who have also completed an additional SpeechEasy certification program.
A speech pathologist may assist vocational teachers and counselors to develop goals and techniques for effective therapy in class and at home. They may establish communication goals and suggest strategies for making positive changes for those affected with speech disorders to allow them to make easier transitions from school to employment and adult life. Speech disorders can be corrected with the proper guidance of a qualified speech pathologist. Many people have been helped and many lives have been improved by the use of the SpeechEasy fluency device.
