Types of stuttering
Including developmental stuttering there are several types of stuttering: This is the most common type of stuttering, which occurs in children. As their speech and language processes are developing, they may not be able to meet verbal demands.
Neurogenic stuttering: Neurogenic stuttering is also a common disorder that occurs from signal problems between the brain and nerves and muscles.
Psychogenic stuttering: Psychogenic stuttering is believed to originate in the mind in the area of the brain that directs thought and reasoning. We have observed this type of stuttering may occur in people with mental illness or who have experienced mental stress or anguish. However, although stuttering may cause emotional problems it is not believed to the result of emotional problems.
