Dear Sabrina, thank you for your questions. 1) I don’t think every patient has to go through a period of helpless response and then a period of mastery-oriented response. This happens with most patients I see, but it’s not mandatory. 2) Both responses can co-exist. For example, if a person thinks stuttering is half static and half dynamic, the person is going to exhibit both responses. 3) Research has demonstrated that the responses are learnt. So they can be modified. Regards, Sandra
