Stuttering and Relationships: Nicole and Tadeo

Nicole attended the American Institute for Stuttering intensive therapy program in January 2011. She and her boyfriend Tadeo discuss her covert stuttering, the way it has affected her personally, and the impact stuttering has had on their relationship.

@misteyism Thanks for commenting. I think its important to consider here that Nicole is in a very safe environment (at AIS) in this video, and stuttering can vary greatly from one situation to another. At the American Institute for Stuttering, we encourage our clients to see each of their experiences with stuttering as unique, and to avoid comparisons (often a slippery slope) whenever possible. As such, I would encourage you to consider what she is saying, rather than how she is saying it.
