Tara, I am also currently seeing an autistic individual who also may be a PWS. I noticed while working with this individual that he uses many filler words such as "um." I didn't really think anything of it until you posted your question. So, I started listening really closely and noticed that he also has quite a few repetitions. I plan to bring it up to my supervisor and see what she thinks.
