I found this article fascinating! We recently had a guest speaker come to our class and she said that she started going to therapy for stuttering when she went to college, but hated it and stopped because she became overly aware of all her dysfluencies, which she felt, ultimately made her stuttering worse. I can definitely see how perfectionism would play a role in stuttering.
