“I was 36-years old, a husband with 2 kids under 3 years old, when I decided to seek therapy for my childhood-onset stutter. I have been experiencing blocking since I was 6-years old and had only been exposed to speech therapy through my grade-school public education system which focused on fluency-shaping. What brought me to therapy at this point in my life, was my internal struggles and fear of how my speech would affect my children’s lives and their perceptions of me. I attended weekly sessions with Amina for 12 weeks and through our discussions, I felt like I was experiencing what I described to my wife as a “major breakthrough every single session”! Ultimately, Amina helped guide me to find an acceptance of my self-image; which reshaped the perception I had of myself and allowed me to be “kinder” in my internal dialogues. Amina forever changed the way that I think and feel about my speech and this has truly changed my life – she saved me.”
