The Starfish Project
(www.starfishproject.co.uk/index.htm)
The Starfish Project - is a non-profit making project for training people who stammer (stutter) to both control and gain
confidence over something that has controlled them. It is not about trying to achieve the impossible of so-called
'fluency' - when no one in life is fluent. It is not about striving for perfection in an imperfect world.
Unfortunately, there is NO CURE for Stammering or Stuttering. However training is specifically designed to give
sufferers the tools and the confidence to control their stammer in the day to day speaking situations that they will
encounter.
Training is on a one to one basis, and given by recovering stammerers. It combines compassion and care with
proven successful methods of diaphragmatic retraining (costal breathing), avoidance reduction therapy and positive
attitude development, and the Essex Support Group, a dedicated team helping stammerers overcome their condition.
