Experience Matters

HCRI´s depth and breadth of experience in the behavioral treatment of stuttering is truly significant. Since our doors opened in 1972, we have treated nearly 6,000 people, between the ages of 11 to 73, from across the U.S. and 47 other countries. We have administered more than 600,000 hours of stuttering therapy, with our clients producing more than 70 million practice responses.

Our clinicians treat more people who stutter in one year than most speech therapists treat in a lifetime

We have worked successfully with a broad range of stuttering types and severities. It is likely we have successfully treated someone with a stuttering condition very similar to yours.As you consider your therapy options and providers, we recommend you always inquire about level of experience. This is one of the most important questions people should ask before undergoing any potentially life-altering procedure - including stuttering treatment.You should know your chances for a successful outcome before beginning treatment.

And, you might want to reflect for a moment on the unique perspective we have earned on this remarkable disorder as a result of working one at a time with thousands of people who stutter. The insights we have acquired through this work are special and they are likely to be of significant personal benefit to you.
