Good question, the only thing I did different to be more open about it was that I allowed a little dysfluency here and there. I did that a little at a time and the more I desensitized myself, the easier it became. So, my advise to you would be to desensitize your clients to stuttering situations slowly - exercises like going up to people and asking for the time or directions. This is something we all fear and the more someone practices speaking in those kinds of situations, the more their confidence grows and the more they will become comfortable with their stuttering.
