For the time being all my group therapies are in German only. However, it appears possible that I do stuttering therapy in English for patients who don't speak enough German to participate. I already have inquiries from Russia, Hungary, Rwanda and Ukraine. So if you have some advanced proficiency in English and none in German, please contact me.
