Great comment, Pam Often it is not the stuttering itself but how we think and feel about stuttering that causes distress. Clinicians need to establish an environment of safety and trust in any therapeutic relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one among several treatment modalities that can help us change negative thoughts so that we can become more self-accepting and less apt to hide stuttering. Best, Barbara
