Do You Feel Trapped by Your Own Voice?
-
Do you freeze when someone asks, “What’s your name?”
-
Are you tired of avoiding words, phone calls, or introductions because you’re afraid of
-
stuttering?
-
Do you leave social events early or stay silent during meetings, just to avoid the pressure
-
of speaking?
-
Have you ever thought, “Why is talking so hard for me?”
If so, you're not alone — and it’s not your fault.
You’ve probably spent years hiding, avoiding, and masking your stutter. It’s exhausting.
You’ve Learned to Cope by Hiding
Maybe you…
-
Change words mid-sentence just to avoid a block
-
Let others speak for you in groups
-
Say “I forgot” or “Never mind” — instead of what you really wanted to say
-
Feel anxious every time you have to speak on the phone or introduce yourself
-
Avoid jobs or opportunities because you fear your stutter will hold you back
-
Been ashamed to not be able to say your own name
This program was built for exactly this kind of struggle.
What You’ll Gain:
✅ Tools to speak with less tension and more ease
✅ Strategies for real-world situations like job interviews, phone calls, and introductions
✅ Support from someone who’s been where you are
✅ Confidence to say what you want — even if you stutter
✅ The courage to stop avoiding life because of your stuttering
You will start to see results in less than three weeks.
This Isn’t Just a Fluency Program. It’s a Way Forward.
The Talk It Up Fluency Program is a 10-week online experience designed for adults who stutter — and led by someone who truly understands.
I am Lori Melnitsky, a speech-language pathologist who also stutters. I know what it’s like to feel stuck, silent, and ashamed.
And I know how to help you move forward.

“I cannot thank Lori enough for helping me control my stuttering and be more fluent. I did not want to accept. I could barely say my name, When we started working together my mindset literally was, I stutter, no one wants to listen to me. I now say. I stutter, can speak with confidence and say my name. Great program. Tk you"
