Inhaltsangabe

Most people who block and stammer do not do so every time they speak Indeed, most people who stammer are consistently fluent in certain contexts. When by themselves, speaking to a pet or speaking to a person with whom they are comfortable they speak fluently. This behaviour has been a puzzle for people who stammer and for speech pathologists who think stammering is a purely physical problem for many years.

Now the puzzle has finally been solved by this outstanding new book which details a completely new approach to treating this debilitating condition. Bob Bodenhamer explains that blocking results from the thinking (cognition) of the stammerer as he or she associates speaking with a lot of fear and anxiety about stammering. Most blocking is no more than a panic attack expressed in the muscles that control breathing and speaking. This book both explains the structure of blocking and provides the tools for gaining more fluency.

Aus dem Klappentext

Have you ever wondered why most people who block or stutter do not stammer every single time that they speak? Indeed, most people who stammer are actually consistently fluent in certain contexts. When by themselves, speaking to a pet, or speaking to a person with whom they are very comfortable, they do speak fluently. This paradox has been a puzzle for people who stammer and even for speak pathologists for many years. Now, in this remarkable publication offers a completely new approach to treating this debilitating condition. Dr. Bodenhamer explains that this phenomenon results from the thinking (cognition) process of the stammerer or stutterer as he or she associates speaking with the rising panic of blocking. Because blocking and stuttering are learned behaviors, they can be unlearned. One way of doing this is through the use of cognitive techniques such as those of NLP or Neuro-semantics, both of which are primarily cognitive therapies. This book included these processes which have been used successfully with clients who suffered from anxiety and panic disorders. These two methodologies provide ways of working to change blocking and stuttering behaviors by altering the way a person thinks.Chapters cover: The Origins of Stuttering; Learning to Think Differently; Changing Points of View; Stories About Stuttering; Working with Stress; Techniques of Change, and more.This volume contains numerous case studies as well as references and resources.
