Hi Dick, Thanks for making those key points. I do want to suggest that many who are covert are able to “hide the problem” of stuttering. They are masters of covertly stuttering! Yes, I agree that worshipping the fluency gods is a bit contradictory when working with someone who is covert or has covert strategies. The desensitization process with PWSC may begin at a seemingly insignificant (to others) level (e.g. saying the word “stutter”). Many thanks for the discussion. –Jill
