I am a graduate student studying to be a speech-language pathologist, and really appreciate hearing about what the goal of speech-therapy should be for individuals who stutter. Particularly coming from an SLP who stutters, thank you for your honesty! I really liked you 5 steps to work on with a person who stutters. This is so helpful to know that we should focus on reducing fear, anxiety, and avoidance before working on fluency strategies. It makes so much sense, but isn't taught this way directly in school. Your article helped me be a better future clinician! Thanks!
