I am a first year graduate student in my first fluency class, and found your article expanded on many of the topics we have discussed in class. More specifically, you explained some of the emotional hurdles that need to be overcome, like fear of certain situations. I think you also made it clear that successful therapy may not result in complete fluency. What is most important is to feel comfortable with communicating. You also gave some great guidlines for PWS and SLPs to assess the effectiveness of therapy, such as the "Yes" statements. I hope I have the opportunity to help a client reach these outcomes someday. Thank you Leia
