Hi Cathy, My name is Kelly McCarthy, I'm a graduate speech-language pathology student at NYU and I'm currently taking a fluency disorders course. I really enjoyed reading your article. Your description of covert stuttering was all new to me. In your article you mentioned how "just stuttering" doesn't work for you. I found that interesting since one of the therapy techniques we have been learning about is voluntary stuttering. I suppose voluntary stuttering would work better for someone less covert. Since that technique does not work for you I was wondering what has helped you the most with your stuttering? I would love your perspective as a covert person who stutters for future reference with possible clients. Thank you so much. Kelly
