Stuttering Support for Adults

Stuttering can include repeating sounds or words, stretching out sounds, or moments when speech feels blocked. For many adults, stuttering is not only about the way speech sounds, but also about the feelings and experiences that come with it, such as frustration, worry, or the effort of avoiding speaking situations.

At Mercury Speech & Language, our approach is compassionate, holistic, and grounded in research. We start with a thorough, person-centered assessment to understand both how stuttering shows up in speech and how it affects daily life. From there, we create an individualized and functional therapy plan that combines practical tools with support for the physical, emotional and cognitive sides of stuttering.

In therapy, we focus on helping adults communicate with greater ease and spontaneity while also building self-awareness, resilience, and advocacy skills. Together, we set meaningful goals, whether that is speaking more comfortably at work, ordering with confidence at a restaurant, or feeling more at ease in personal conversations. Our aim is to help every adult who stutters feel valued, empowered, and confident to say what they want to say.
