When I saw the clip, I was astonished how severe I stutter… But – it is part of every modern stuttering therapy one to receive feedback about his stuttering through such records. It helps for self acceptance, which is the most decisive step in the therapy. Here in Bulgaria the speech therapists use mostly speech fluency therapy, i.e. – speech techniques, prolonged speech, so on. This is o’k, of course – the presumption is that new speech praxis will be formed on neurological level. It is fine. However, the speech modification therapy approach is still undeveloped fully here. My opinion is that both approaches work best in the integral therapy. I just want to say that if impediment such as stuttering is expressed through the context of one strong charismatic personality, it transforms into negligible and peculiar advantage! No more, no less.
