SpeechEasy®

SpeechEasy® is an electronic stuttering inhibiting device that looks like and is worn like a hearing aid. It delivers Altered Auditory Feedback (AAF): a combination of Delayed Auditory Feedback and Frequency Altered Feedback. The SpeechEasy® stuttering inhibiting device can immediately reduce the frequency and severity of stuttering with minimal effort. Some people are more responsive to AAF than others. An assessment allows you to try a stuttering inhibiting device and to evaluate, together with the Speech-Language Pathologist, its effects on your stuttering, before investing in a stuttering inhibiting device.

SpeechEasy® is suitable/intended for older adolescents and adults, and can be considered for some older school-age children. It is possible for some children to benefit from wearing a SpeechEasy® device; however, it should not be the first treatment to be tried. The child’s maturity, responsibility, and motivation are considered when assessing suitability. Speech therapy history is another important consideration. A child who is already working with a Speech-Language Pathologist can be supported in using the device to derive the most benefit.

  No single treatment method is suited to everyone who stutters. Treatment for stuttering is a personal choice made by individual clients who are adequately informed of their options. TalkKing Speech Therapy is a licensed distributor for SpeechEasy® throughout Wisconsin.  While SpeechEasy® may not be suitable for every person who stutters, it has helped many speak with greater fluency and confidence. Contact Us about a SpeechEasy® assessment so you can evaluate if this treatment option will work for you.  We’re here to help!
