Or is the client's opinion of his or her speech really what makes certain sounds more difficult? . . . . . Sarah, troublesome sounds vary from pws to pws, and they can change over time. The best we can do clinically is to help each client define his/her current problems and work to solve them. . . . In my experience, client's opinions of which sounds are difficult develops from experiencing difficulty with certain sounds. Sometimes, anxiety about certain sounds may develop and become part of the problem. BH
