Hello everyone! I am a Speech Language Pathology graduate student and I am working my first school age stuttering client this semester. This is her first semester in therapy as she has become more comfortable discussing her stuttering, it has become more and more apparent to me that she is sometimes teased about her stuttering in school. She has told me that this teasing bothers her, and therefore, I would like to give her some tools to help her cope with the negative effects of bullying. My question is, what techniques have experienced SLPs found to be most effective for empowering and building self confidence among school age children who stutter?
