I really enjoyed reading your article, "When Children Who Stutter Present Co-occuring Speech-Language Disorders: Some Clinical Considerations." I am a second-year graduate student and have not had the opportunity to work with an individual who sutters yet. When dealing with a client who has co-occuring speech-language disorders, is improvement made more rapidly when working on one speech disorder at a time and then moving onto the other? For instance, does an individual with language and fluency problems improve more when these disorders are worked on intermitantly, or should one goal be mastered before you move on?
