Deborah, you are right on track! It takes my students a while to figure out that stuttering therapy is not as much about the stuttering as it is about they way a PWS feels about their stuttering. They are shocked that such a "little" speech disruption can have such a powerful impact on a person's life. Dr. Phil Schneider has a terrific video out called Transcending Stuttering... encourage your professor to purchase for the Department. It contains seven very compelling stories about people who stutter and the very different courses their lives have taken in their journies to overcome it. Its available on the National Stuttering Association's website.. www.westutter.org Best of luck in the class... hope you are able to work professionally with those of us who stutter :-)
