I have a 5th grade student who stutters. His dysfluencies are really "secondary characteristic" looking (glottal sounds and lip smacking). Can you give me any advice about treating secondary characteristics? We have been practicing purposeful stuttering, stretching, bouncing etc... (in addition to social-emotional discussions) but I feel like I am ignoring his secondaries. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Have a great day.
