Stuttering Clinic

ÂÌñÉç's Division of Speech and Language Pathology offers stuttering clinic services as part of the Speech, Language and Hearing Clinic. Two licensed speech-language pathologists with experience in providing stuttering therapy supervise the clinic.

Therapy Options and Cost

  • Individual therapy sessions are offered and scheduled twice a week for 45 minutes. Individuals will work one-on-one with the clinician to develop personalized goals, learn about stuttering and acquire new skills to navigate stuttering. The cost of individual therapy (45 minutes) is $25 per session. However, all therapy is currently free due to donations from two community partners.

  • We are also exploring group therapy for individuals ages 12 and older. Our group therapy program allows participants to learn more about stuttering, acquire new skills and receive support from clinical staff and other group members with similar experiences and struggles. The cost for group therapy (60 minutes) is $10 per session. However, all therapy is currently free due to donations from two community partners. 

  • We will offer an intensive stuttering clinic for children during the summer of 2026. The clinic — Camp Dream, Speak, Live — will be provided in partnership with the Arthur Blank Center and will include group therapy experiences similar to the general themes of our individual and group therapy. All therapy is currently free due to donations from two community partners. 

  • A Virtual Intensive Stuttering Clinic for Adolescents and Adults is also available. This program is for adolescents and adults (ages 16 and older) who stutter. The program, offered through teletherapy videoconferencing, provides 30 hours of stuttering therapy focused on helping clients discuss personal experiences with stuttering, develop their own goals and learn about stuttering. This program is currently free as part of an ongoing research project. Dates for the next clinic offering will be posted soon. 

Location and Availability

We are exploring in-person and virtual teletherapy services for group and individual sessions. In-person sessions are held at the ÂÌñÉç Speech, Language and Hearing Clinic in the University's JC Center at 10 University Blvd. (formerly Gannett Dr.) in Johnson City, N.Y. Virtual sessions are held via Zoom.
