Stuttering is more than a speech behavior. It’s a condition that can negatively (and often severely) impact the life of a person. Stuttering can dictate what a person does or does not do, what jobs think they think they can do, what classes they take, whether they speak to someone on the sidewalk, whether they think they can be happy or have success. Stuttering is more than just stuttering so research in stuttering is more than just research into disfluent speech.

There are many available resources for therapy in the city of Pittsburgh. The Duquesne University Stuttering Clinic focuses exclusively on stuttering and serves children and adults from all ages. Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh also provides outpatient stuttering therapy to children at various locations throughout the greater Pittsburgh area.

Dr. Tichenor also sees a small number of clients personally in his private therapy practice.
