Hi Allison, Thank you for your generous comments – it was kind of you to write in such a positive vein. It’s always heartening to receive feedback from SLP graduate students. I have addressed many such groups at US universities during recent years and never fail to be impressed by their enthusiasm and interest. The students have an insatiable thirst for knowledge and I am always inundated with questions. You may wish to check out the following link: Helping tomorrow's therapists help people who stammer http://www.stammering.org/helpingtherapists.html For the majority of my life, stuttering was my ‘darkest secret’. Greater openness has had a hugely desensitizing effect. I now discuss it with all and sundry, even total strangers in the street. :-) I am delighted that you consider my paper to be of value when dealing with your clients. I wish you every success with your studies and future career. Kindest regards Alan
