The King's Speech is an amazing movie about a man who becomes king after his brother abdicates the throne. The new king, George the Sixth, happens to be a stutterer. He receives "speech therapy" from a self-taught speech coach. Despite that lack of formal training, the movie very effectively shows the courage of the King whenever he had to speak, as well as the bond of trust that grows between a speech pathologist and client.
Today's well-trained speech/language pathologists use different techniques and equipment than did the speech coach in the movie. However, whether a speech/language pathologist works in educational or medical settings, private practice or the corporate world, the bond of trust remains the same. As a speech/language pathologist, it is a privilege to help clients learn to communicate more effectively.
