Micahel, you're article was very informative. As a future SLP I completely agree with taking the whole person into consideration when treating stuttering. Stuttering is way more than just the speech behaviors for most PWS. You mentioned that you were a PWS and have battled with your fair share of anxiety. I was curious, if you don't mind, what helped you personally overcome these fears/anxieties about speaking? Did your SLP incorporate any of these aspects of stuttering into your therapy?
