STAMMERING
Overcoming Stammering with KOCOON Junior: Empowering Your Child’s Voice
At KOCOON Junior, we understand the challenges that come with stammering, also known as stuttering. It can impact your child's confidence, communication skills, and social interactions. Our specialized therapy programs offer a supportive and nurturing environment where children can work towards fluency and develop effective communication skills.
Understanding Stammering
Stammering is a speech disorder characterized by disruptions in the normal flow of speech. It may include repetitions of sounds, syllables, or words, prolongations of sounds, and blocks where no sound comes out. While occasional speech disruptions are common in young children, persistent stammering can benefit from professional intervention.
