What causes stuttering / stammering?
There are a number of factors that have been cited to contribute to the development of stuttering:
- genetics (approximately 60% of those who stutter have a family member who does also)
- child development (children with other speech and language problems or developmental delays are more likely to stutter)
- neurophysiology (recent neurological research has shown that people who stutter process speech and language slightly differently than those who do not stutter)
- family dynamics (high expectations and fast-
paced lifestyles can contribute to stuttering).
Stuttering may occur when a combination of factors comes together and may have different causes in different people. It is probable that what causes stuttering differs from what makes it continue or get worse.
How many people stutter?
It is estimated that more than 68 million people worldwide stutter, which is about 1% of the population. In the UK that is equal to about 650,000 sufferers!

Is stuttering caused by emotional or psychological problems?
Children and adults who stutter are no more likely to have psychological or emotional problems than children and adults who do not. However, it is interesting that when a client suffering from a stutter or stammer first experiences Hypnosis, very often the stutter or stammer recedes due to the deep level of relaxation that Hypnosis offers. Often a stutterer has placed themselves under so much “internal pressure” that the problem could almost be described as “Anticipatory Anxiety”, a process we examine and discuss at length in our Changing Limiting Beliefs programme. Stutters or stammers are also often the result of Social Anxiety (Social Phobia) and might be negatively affected by a sense of being judged or feeling “on the spot”.
Can Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy help with Stutters and Stammers?
Advanced Hypnotherapy and Hypnosis techniques have an excellent track record at helping sufferers overcome stuttering and stammering, although the actual therapeutic technique that is used differs in each client according to their own specific set of circumstances.
