Thanks Katie. I'm a psychologist, not an SLP, so I would not want to advise you on how to structure your sessions. However, I will share, based on my experience as a person who stutters, that when I was "stuck" and not making progress in therapy it was typically because of emotional or attitudinal factors. My best therapists were those who also focused on the feelings and attitudes involved with stuttering. So...I would encourage you, especially with clients who seem "stuck," to ask questions that will hopefully prompt them to look at their stuttering from a different perspective and hopefully feel more empowered.
