The Lidcombe Program of Early Stuttering Intervention is an evidence-based behavioral treatment program. It has been proven to be extremely effective throughout the world. This program requires a commitment by the parents to provide a daily structured 10 – 15 minute session with their child. The speech pathologist meets with the parent and child once a week for an hour. Techniques begin with highly structured activities and the use of specific phrases to provide information to the child about their speaking. The parent is trained in these techniques and in keeping data and must bring the data to all office visits.
