Camperdown Program Resources
The Camperdown Program is an effective therapy for adolescents who stutter. Speech pathologists at our centre have received training in how to use this treatment.
This therapy involves learning a technique to assist control of stuttering. At the start of therapy, clients learn to use a large amount of technique to help control their stuttering. As clients progress through therapy, their clinician guides them to use smaller amounts of technique, while still retaining satisfactory control of their stuttering.
The training examples below demonstrate a person using a large amount of technique, and are only to be used with a close family member. The training examples can be used interchangeably; adolescents may wish to use both adolescent and adult training examples. If you wish to listen to the adult training examples, please see below.
Adolescent Training Example – male
Adolescent Training Example – female
Adolescent Training Text
“The scores were even with only minutes left ‘till half time. Anticipation and frustration were building. With only seconds left, a fast move surprised the opposition and a goal was scored. A sea of black and white supporters roared as the siren sounded. The game paused for refreshments and entertainment.”

Adolescent Training Text
“The largest snake in the world is the anaconda. Anacondas belong to the boa constrictor family and are found in the Amazon Jungle. They usually live near rivers or lakes as they like to lie in muddy waters. They are not aggressive and will usually disappear into the water when confronted.”
