Dr. Amster and Dr. Klein I enjoyed reading your article about perfectionism and stuttering. I am currently working with an adult male client that stutters and I personally would not categorize him as a perfectionist. However, when we discuss his speech in therapy, he sometimes implies that he is concerned about how others perceive him. Or maybe after reading this article, I am just more inclined to look back at our interactions and feel that way. In the article, you discussed how it was beneficial to use CBT treatment in addition to stutter therapy, after completion of this study have you (or the students you work with) incorporated elements of the CBT treatment for your clients that stutter?
